During the presentation the chair cited survey results from Draper Days to show residents’ priorities: the chair said 89% of respondents view trees as very or extremely important and that many respondents indicated willingness to pay a modest monthly fee to support tree planting and maintenance.
"In our Draper Days survey, 89%, you know, feel that's very important," the chair said when reviewing public‑opinion slides. Committee members noted survey phrasing can affect answers, and they discussed reformatting graphics so that supportive responses are easier to read, but they used the findings to bolster the committee's pitch for increased maintenance resources.
