Internal Communication Survey

About a year ago we asked city employees for feedback about internal communication.

Now it’s time for a checkup. Please take this quick survey to let us know how we’re doing and where we could improve.

Your responses are totally anonymous, and you can take the survey at your work computer, at home or on a mobile device.

Thanks for participating. We look forward to your input.
