The survey was presented in Russian and Spanish as well as <br /> English in order to accommodate the City's diverse population and maximize <br /> participation. The City received a total of 480 responses to this survey between July 10 <br /> and October 9, 2015.

Concerning street improvements, congestion was a major concern noted by over <br /> 70% of respondents, with over 20% indicating an issue with parking. At the same time, <br /> there was cognizance from the community that bicycle, pedestrian, and "Complete <br /> Streets" improvements should be a City priority.
