Survey Consent Form

This form asks for your consent to participate in a community based research study on the neighborhood assets and needs in the Northwest Aurora and Stapleton neighborhoods and the potential impact by the Stanley Marketplace development project which, is part of the Westerly Creek Urban Renewal Plan.

The purpose of this research project is to pilot test a neighborhood asset development and needs assessment survey in the Northwest Aurora neighborhood of the suburb of Aurora, and the northeast Stapleton neighborhood of Denver. The neighborhood survey is developed to ascertain the degree and intensity of neighborhood collective efficacy, neighborhood economic, social, and political sustainability, and neighborhood collaboration between the Northwest Aurora and Stapleton neighborhood community organizations and the Stanley Marketplace. The neighborhood survey consists of 115 questions and should take no more than 20-40 minutes of your time.
