To engage more residents in the business of the city, Groveland has launched a new resident engagement program that uses community surveys to understand residents’ priorities and preferences. Insights from the data will help the city council and staff shape future decisions.
A third-party research firm called FlashVote will administer the short, five-question surveys several times a year and within 48 hours, all the results will be available to the public. Responses are completely anonymous to encourage candor.
To sign up, residents can visit www.flashvote.com/grovelandfl and register to become part of the survey panel. Once enough residents have signed up, the first survey will be deployed. Residents can respond on any device – mobile, laptop or desktop – and surveys are offered in English and Spanish.
“As leaders, we work for our residents and invest tax dollars on their behalf” said Groveland Mayor Keith Keogh. “We believe it’s vital to hear voices we’re not currently hearing.”
He said the city is communicating in more ways than ever through neighborhood huddles, open houses, social media and direct outreach, but council events and committee meetings remain sparsely attended.
“If residents sign up and take the surveys, they’ll have much greater representation and more say in the city’s future.”
Registration is open and all Groveland residents are invited to sign up. The first survey will be designed to poll residents on what they believe to be the city’s most important priorities. Sign up to share your thoughts through quick, anonymous one-minute surveys.
Don’t miss the first survey, coming soon.
