Municipal Election Survey

Municipal election survey: help us identify priorities for Tiny’s next Council

The Federation of Tiny Township Shoreline Associations (FoTTSA) is conducting this 10-question anonymous survey to help residents communicate their concerns and priorities to candidates for the October 24 municipal election.

Please take a few minutes now to complete the survey. Better still, help us boost response by forwarding this email to friends and neighbours.

Tiny’s incoming elected officials need to hear from all of us.

We will post the results on our website and publish them in the fall issue of The Tiny Cottager — weeks ahead of the October 24 election.
