Staff anticipated a 3-5 page survey to be mailed to 1,000 randomly selected registered voters. If approved staff would bring a draft survey to Council for review at the November 19 or December 3 City Council meeting. The cost of the survey is estimated at $18,000 and funds would be appropriated in the year-end budget amendment, if necessary. Staff recommended approval of the policy survey and appointment of two members of City Council to work with staff on the survey. COUNCIL COMMMENT Mayor Pro Tem Dalton suggested the survey be put off until January and volunteered to work on the survey. Mayor Muckle also volunteered to work on the survey with staff. Council members agreed to work with staff on the 2014 Policy Survey and appoint Mayor Muckle and Mayor Pro Tem to work with staff on the survey questions.
