Commission authorizes a short public survey and names a drafter to boost engagement
Summary
Members agreed a short, tightly scripted survey (3–5 multiple-choice questions plus a brief open comment field) will be used to gauge residents' priorities; Bill volunteered to compile input and draft the questionnaire for review before distribution.
The Commission approved a process to develop a concise public survey to gather resident input on potential charter changes, balancing canned multiple-choice items with a limited open-ended option to capture additional concerns. Members stressed that surveys are not definitive but can qualify priorities and should be short to encourage response. "Canned responses with limited character space for additional comments," one member said, reflecting consensus on format.
Bill volunteered to assemble proposed questions and circulate drafts to commissioners for feedback; commissioners agreed to review the draft at the next public hearing and confirm the distribution method (website, QR codes, flyers at local stores) before deployment.
