Living in Palmerston North

The City Council is doing some research to find out how people see Palmerston North. The Youth Council is helping us by asking young people (under the age of 24 years) what they think. We are asking people of other age groups similar questions.

We will use the results to help make Palmerston North a better place to live.

You do not have to tell us your name. However, all entries with names on them will go into a draw to win one of two $50 Plaza vouchers. We will not use your name in any of the survey results.

The survey will close on 12 February 2010.

Thank You
