Arapahoe County is conducting a survey to gain community perceptions about the County and its open space program and to discover what makes it appealing to different audiences.

Citizen input is vital to helping us understand what makes Arapahoe County appealing to key audiences, such as residents, businesses and visitors.

Information gathered from this survey, which is being conducted by North Star Destination Strategies, will help us pinpoint how Arapahoe County should target its communication and citizen outreach efforts.

The survey should take about 20 minutes to complete and all responses are confidential. To take the survey, click on the following link http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/MYZMDTD.

As a thank you for taking the time to fill out the survey, participants have the option of entering to win a $100 gift card to Tagawa Gardens. Just enter an e-mail address at the end of the survey. The winner will be contacted by Sept. 1 and announced on the Arapahoe County twitter account.
