Resident Surveys
2012 Official Community Plan Survey
-
As approved by Council, a marketing research firm conducted a telephone survey for the City of Parksville, canvassing 300 Parksville residents aged 19 years and older.
-
The City recently conducted an online resident satisfaction survey receiving a total of 93 responses. 82% rated the overall value of services received from the City as excellent, very good or good and 91.5% rated the overall quality of life as excellent, very good or good. Unfortunately, there were insufficient completions to allow meaningful comparisons to the 2010 results. The results with comments are on the website. The comments were provided to City departments and to Council for their consideration. We requested only Parksville residents complete the survey and allowed the opportunity for more than one person at an email address to participate in order to accommodate more than one person per household. The results along with all comments are included here:

The surveys were delivered by Canada Post unaddressed ad mail. A total of 1,919 surveys were returned during May 2010. The results, along with all comments provided by residents in the surveys, are included here.
