Survey Update

On the South Ogden City Website the following has been posted about the Survey I commented on a couple of weeks ago:

General Plan Revision/Citizen Survey

Thanks to all of those that have participated in our citizen survey. Out of 5,200 surveys sent out we have about 750 that have been returned. The return rate is 14% which is typical for a citizen survey. Once the results have been compiled we will make them available on the web site for your viewing.

The General Plan updated is moving forward and should be completed some time this fall. The city will be hosting an open house and two public hearings before it is adopted. Please stay tuned for those upcoming dates.

I would like to note I was off on my calculations from my previous post; they only sent 5,200 not the estimated 5,466, a difference of $109.06 for the initial mailing and only 750 mailed back the survey; the cost was only $307.50, giving us a grand total of:

$2,439.50.

Not bad, they still could have saved a tree or two on Raymond.

I look forward to the final results.
