Three thousand residents of unincorporated Jefferson County will begin receiving the county’s 2010 Citizen Survey in the mail during the week of Jan. 18. Commissioners plan to use the 2010 results to evaluate services and programs, assess community needs and help with strategic planning.
The survey, which will be available in Spanish upon request, asks citizens a variety of questions that address quality of life, safety, county customer service and more. Only one person per household is requested to respond. The company conducting the survey, National Research Center (NRC), of Boulder, will send Jeffco’s survey to a cross-section of citizens based on geography and demographics.
Households that will receive the survey next week should receive a pre-notification card this week. In March, NRC will deliver results to Commissioners. The county is paying $24,700 to NRC for creating, administering and reporting. The county conducted its last citizen survey in 2004.
