City of Sugar Hill - Public Opinion Survey

The City of Sugar Hill has been working on a Comprehensive Plan to evaluate the current strengths of the community and create a vision for the future. The plan addresses items such as population growth, development patterns, economic development, natural and historic resource preservation, and other items as they relate to Sugar Hill. The plan is broken down into three main elements: Community Assessment, Data Assessment, and Public Participation. The Community Assessment evaluates the current conditions in the City and identifies issues, opportunities, strengths, and weaknesses in the community. The Data Assessment examines current and past demographic trends and forecasts future trends based on these assumptions. The Public Participation component relies on feedback from residents, business owners, and other people with a vested interest in the future of the City. The following survey is designed to give citizens the opportunity to take part in the planning process. This effort hopes to increase public awareness of proposed programs and aims at producing a Plan that best reflects the overall vision for the community.

The information you provide in this survey is confidential. Your responses will be combined with those from other participants for statistical analysis.
