Local Food. Local Jobs.
Would you like to tell Springfield's City Manager what you think Springfield should look like in 2030? Here is how you can:
Springfield City Manager Greg Burris is offering an opportunity for any community or civic organization to schedule a Listening Tour meeting through Executive Assistant Kathy Hardt at 864-1006 or via email at khardt@springfieldmo.gov.
Individual citizens may answer the same survey questions that Mr. Burris is asking when he visits with community or civic organizations, and the Web site the City has provided for such input, according to news releases, does not relay the source of the input except by region (unless you choose to identify yourself).
If you would like to answer the survey questions, you may follow this link, "QuestionPro Survey - Listening Tour."
Following are the survey questions:
- What do you value most about the Springfield area?
- What would you most like to change about the Springfield area?
- What is your vision for the Springfield area in the Year 2030?
- How can you help us get there?
The survey also gives you an opportunity to make additional comments about Springfield's long range planning process and to provide your email address should you wish to be notified when further information is available regarding strategic planning.
This would be a good opportunity for Well Fed Neighbors to let Springfield's City manager know local food sustainability matters when thinking about what a future Springfield should look like.
One of the news releases states the survey will be available online at least through January 31 so, it could be removed at any time since we are past that date...time's a wastin' if you want to share your opinion about strategic planning!

Melissa, here's what I got (and please note the online survey will continue through the end of February so, there is more time for Well Fed Neighbors to take the survey):
"The online survey and the Listening Tours continue through the end of February. After that, we'll provide a summary of responses plus an appendix of the complete responses to the Council and the Planning Groups. That will likely be around mid-March. Yes, it will be posted on the Internet at that time." -Springfield Public Information Director Louise Whall via email on Feb. 11, 2010

I had trouble with the formatting on this.
Not sure why. - Jackie
