<br />City Council <br />Study Session Summary <br />August 12, 2008 <br />Page 2 of 5 <br /> <br />Ms. Hayden said that across the Front Range community surveys had all <br />taken a downturn in the snow removal area. Ms. Hayden said that overall <br />the Louisville survey statistics were higher than the national and Front <br />Range statistics. <br />· Character of Community - Ms. Hayden said that the survey again <br />indicated that the city had maintained or improved since the last survey <br />and was above the national and Front Range median with the exception <br />of shopping, which was lower. <br />· Policy Topics - Ms. Hayden said that in this area it was important to look <br />at the strong support vs. the somewhat support to better understand what <br />policies the citizens are indicating as priority policies. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />City Manager Malcolm Fleming stated that after reviewing the Highway 42 <br />question he was concerned that it might be interpreted as being more general or <br />citywide instead of specific to the Highway 42 project. City Manager Fleming <br />asked Ms. Hayden if she agreed. Ms. Hayden said it might be and that it might <br />be a possible focus group topic in the future. <br /> <br />Councilor Ron Sackett asked if the Potential Projects were supposed to be <br />specific to Highway 42. Ms. Hayden said they were not but were more general <br />city-wide projects. <br /> <br />Ms. Hayden said that the survey was a good indication that the City was doing <br />well. <br /> <br />The Mayor and Council thanked Ms. Hayden for her work on the survey, as well <br />as, City Manager Fleming and Assistant City Manager Balser. <br /> <br />3.
