Some Dayton households to receive annual resident survey in mail

DAYTON, Ohio — Thousands of Dayton residents will have the opportunity to provide feedback to the city on its programs/services through the annual Dayton Survey, according to a city press release.

They will be selecting around 13,000 households at random to receive the survey in the email this month or early next. Those surveys will include around 80 questions, and the respondents will remain anonymous.

“The Dayton Survey helps City leaders better understand community needs and guide policy and budget decisions,” the release reads.

Those wishing to fill out the survey need to return it within two weeks or submit their responses online here. They just need a PIN code that will be included with the survey they receive in the mail.

“As an added incentive, survey administrator ETC Institute will randomly select one participant to receive a $500 VISA gift card,” the release reads. “To be eligible, residents must be included in the initial mailing group and return a completed survey either by mail or online. The resident selected to receive the gift card will be notified by ETC Institute directly, before the end of the year.”
