In March 2023, the Wallingford Community Council launched a survey using survey monkey to solicit feedback on areas of interest from the community. The short survey was sent out to community council members, advertised on social media – including the WCC website and sent around to various listservs and groups within the neighborhood. The goal of the survey is to help the community council understand key priority areas for the neighborhood in order to prioritize the work of the community council. Over 250 people responded to the survey which provided helpful insight.
The top 5 areas the community wanted to see focused on were:
- Public Safety
- Homelessness
- Zoning
- Housing for All
- Park Upkeep
The results of the full survey were presented at June 7th WCC meeting.
