Frequently Asked Questions
Is feedback anonymous?
Ratepayers can choose to provide feedback anonymously or attributed. Both types are analyzed equally, though attributed feedback allows for more targeted follow-up.
How does feedback lead to actual changes?
Each feedback cycle produces an action plan with assigned owners and deadlines. Progress is reported to leadership monthly and shared with ratepayers at review meetings.
How often is ratepayer feedback collected?
Formal feedback is collected monthly through surveys and quarterly through in-depth interviews. Ad-hoc feedback is captured at any time through the support channel.
