As a part of the City’s strategic planning initiative all households within the city limits of Can- non Beach will be receiving The National Citizen Survey (NCS). You already should have received a post card informing you that your household will be receiving the survey. The ﬁrst survey packet was mailed earlier this week and next week you will receive a reminder packet in case you have not already returned the completed survey. The NCS is a nationally acclaimed community livability assessment tool. It was developed by experts to produce clear, unbiased and accurate results. Although many questions are appli- cable to all cities you will notice that there are also questions speciﬁc to our community. The NCS will assist council and staff in prioritizing city services that citizens feel are most important. Rarely do we hear from more than a handful of residents on any given topic, the NCS will be your opportunity to have your voice heard. You will have the option of completing the survey either online or in a paper format. Please remember that your response is completely anonymous. We look forward to hearing from you! QUESTIONS FREQUENTLY ASKED BY RESIDENTS • How did you get my address? Your address was sampled at random from a list of all addresses from the post ofﬁce. This is a standard service offered by the post ofﬁce. It is not a city government ﬁle and no household member is named in the ﬁle. • I live outside of the jurisdiction for which this survey was meant. What should I do? Please complete the survey. Even though you live outside the boundaries, you may use our services or participate in community activities and we want your opinions. • I received your survey, and while I own the property that it was sent to, I don’t live there. What should I do? The resident of the property should com- plete the survey. • What is the purpose of requesting the person who most recently had a birthday complete the survey? We have randomly selected households within our jurisdiction to receive the survey. in the letter creates the most representative sample of our jurisdiction. You’ll be sur- prised at how much you can contribute. • I doubt that you are interested in my opin- ion. Should I really complete the survey? Yes, the government is here to serve all residents, and it is important to us that we get feedback from a complete cross-section of our residents. • If I ﬁlled out the survey when I ﬁrst re- ceived it, should I ﬁll it out again now that I have received a second copy? No, please don’t ﬁll it out again. Because responses are anonymous, we don’t know who already completed a survey. Since we only want one response from each person, those who already sent in a survey should not return another one. The second copy is distributed as a reminder to all people selected to be sent a survey. Thank you for completing the ﬁrst survey. • We would also like to choose in an unbiased way a person within each household to complete the survey. This way we ensure the results are representative of our community as a whole. While it may seem a bit strange, using the “birthday method” is a simple way to select an adult from within each house- hold without permitting bias in our results. • I was not sent a survey, but I would be happy to complete one, and I think you should be interested in my opinion. The sample was designed to be as repre- sentative as possible of the population of our city, so by sending copies of the survey to people who request a copy, we would skew the sample and make the results less meaningful. • I am the person in my household who most recently had a birthday, but I am not very informed about the issues covered in the survey. Can I give the survey to someone else in my household who is more informed? We would prefer that you complete the survey. The “birthday method” described • Why is “Hispanic” separate from “Race”? We want to compare the demographic pro- ﬁle of those responding to the demographic proﬁle of the municipality as presented by the Census. In order to be able to do this we asked our race and ethnicity question the same way the Census does. The census des- ignates Hispanic as an ethnicity, not a race.
