Dear Oneida County Residents and Property Owners:

Every day, Oneida County residents and visitors are served by dedicated public employees at the federal, state, county, city, and town levels. Law enforcement, firefighters, health care professionals, teachers, forestry workers, engineers, social workers, street and highway crews, and countless others provide an array of diverse and vital services to the citizens and guests of Oneida County.

This citizen survey is one of several ways we listen to the people of Oneida County to better understand your priorities and expectations regarding county programs and services. Oneida County tax dollars make up approximately 19% of your county tax bill. The results of this survey will be used to develop our budget together with citizen input at open meetings, public hearings, and your direct contact with county board supervisors and county staff.

This survey seeks your input in the following areas:

·General feelings regarding the quality of life in Oneida County
·Value received for county tax dollars
·The quality of services provided by your county government


Thank you very much for sharing your perspectives with us.
Sincerely,

Andy Smith
County Board Chairperson

Ted Cushing
Finance Committee Chairperson

John Potters
County Coordinator
