Building Butler Survey

The City of Butler has contracted with Kaysinger Basin Regional Planning Commission to write the city’s new comprehensive plan. As part of that process, we need participation from those who live in or visit Butler on a regular basis. Since some of the questions being asked are personal, there is no need to include your name. Thank you for your time and cooperation.
