Auburn, Ala. - The 2013 Annual Citizen Survey is underway. The Annual Citizen Survey is a crucial part of citizen involvement in Auburn, and an important part of the citizen input that guides City leaders in formulating the city’s budget, policies, projects and plans for the future.

A randomly selected sample of Auburn citizens are currently receiving this year’s survey by mail. Recipients are encouraged to fill out the survey and return it to make their voices heard in City government.

Results of the Annual Citizen Survey back to 2005 can be viewed online at http://www.auburnalabama.org/survey, along with an input form allowing online visitors to suggest a question for future surveys.

The Annual Citizen Survey is a scientific survey of Auburn residents conducted by the ETC Institute, a Kansas research firm. The survey will be administered in January and February of 2013, with results presented to the Auburn City Council and the public in April.
