Walthill Community Survey

Walthill Community Survey

The Village of Walthill, in partnership with the Northeast Nebraska Economic Development District (NENEDD), are conducting a community outreach effort. The first step is seeking citizen input through a community survey. The survey will be tabulated through NENEDD to get an overall view of what enhancements are most desired within the community, as well as for community planning and future grant applications. Additionally, the results will help determine what will be priority when making improvements to the community. Surveys can be completed online at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/2026Walthill, scan the QR code, or picked up and returned to the Village of Walthill Office by June 1, 2026.
