Biennial Community Survey - Recommend Park and Recreation
Questions
The City of Chanhassen conducts a community survey every other year. The
schedule for this year's survey is attached. The survey is a standardized format
for local units of government with the only modification being the inclusion of
four customized questions; one open-ended and three closed-ended. The City
Council would like to hear the commission's ideas for a couple of questions
relating to parks and recreation that could be used in the survey. The Council is
seeking ideas from all commissions and will ultimately select the final four
custom questions.
The 2005 survey included the following customized questions:
Open-Ended Question: What do you think will be the single biggest
issue facing the City of Chanhassen over the next 2-3 years? .
Closed-Ended Questions: See attached.
The full results from the 2005 community survey can be accessed on our
website at http://www.ci.chanhassen.mn.us/commlsurvey.html.
The City of Chanhassen · A growing community with clean lakes, quality schools, a charming downtown, thriving businesses, winding trails, and beautiful parks. A great place to live, work, and play.
