Crime Prevention Specialist Kreyer offered that we could ask for that voluntarily. <br />City Administrator Ulrich suggested maybe giving the nearest intersection to their home. <br />Mayor Ramsey said the resident could be asked to volunteer their address. <br />Councilmember Elvig thought that would be fine providing the resident is informed as to why <br />we would like their address. <br />Councilmember Jeffrey stated that he really likes the survey and would like to see it get out as <br />broadly as possible. He suggested it might be a good idea to send an abbreviated survey home <br />with the Ramsey Elementary students. He stated that he asked his 13-year-old daughter these <br />questions and got totally different answers than you would from an adult — he felt it would be <br />good to hear from the kids in the community — maybe survey a different demographic - maybe <br />survey the Safety Camp kids. <br />Councilmember Elvig thought that was a great idea but it may be a problem sending it home <br />with the kids — it might be a better idea to have the kids take the survey at school. <br />Councilmember Backous thought it would be a good idea to coordinate it with the school — at the <br />school. <br />Mayor Ramsey, in reviewing the survey, asked what difference it makes if you rent or own. <br />Ms. Kreyer responded that maybe you have more of a buy -in with your community if you have <br />more of an investment here. <br />Councilmember Backous commented that this survey is an awesome idea but dangerous <br />sometimes as he wondered what the PD's thoughts are on how we are going to act on these <br />things we find out. <br />Ms. Kreyer stated her goal is to look at the preventative stuff; use it as a tool to educate people — <br />look at what the demand is. <br />Councilmember Wise stated we have talked some about issues with our ordinances - maybe ask <br />questions if some of our ordinances are being misused — manipulated. <br />Chief Way thought that might be something for the Ramsey Resident instead. <br />City Administrator Ulrich suggested if we put a notice in the utility bill and say go on line to fill <br />out the survey — that's an extra step. Maybe if the survey comes in with the bill they will be <br />more apt to fill it out. He would prefer we put it in the utility bill and see how that goes — or in <br />the Ramsey Resident. <br />City Council Work Session — February 1, 2011 <br />Page 2of12 <br />
