TOPICS FOR DISCUSSION <br />2.01: Review Final Citizen Survey Questionnaire <br />City Administrator Ulrich reviewed the staff report and draft questions for the proposed survey. <br />Councilmember Musgrove referenced the questions related to parks, trails, and a community <br />center. <br />Acting Mayor Riley explained that the answers would dictate the policy. He noted that new <br />developments are not required to build a park, but instead are required to contribute towards a fund <br />used for that purpose. He stated that the answers would dictate whether the community prefers <br />smaller neighborhood parks or larger centrally located parks. <br />Councilmember Specht acknowledged that these questions are derived from the Council goals and <br />the Strategic Plan but commented that some of the questions are vague and could be misinterpreted <br />by residents. He believed that it would be difficult to gain meaningful information. <br />City Council Work Session / October 13, 2020 <br />Page 1 of 4 <br />
