[Press Release] Niagara Falls City Council Chairman Andrew Touma announced this week that the Council will be looking for feedback from residents on a number of issues. Starting Tuesday, February 17, city residents will be invited to give their opinions to the Council through brief surveys available at City Hall in the City Clerk’s office and the Office of Billing and Collections, as well as in both the Main Street and LaSalle branches of the Niagara Falls Public Library. The survey is already available online at the Council’s Facebook page, Facebook.com/NFCityCouncil.
Niagara Falls City Council Chairman Andrew Touma: “Not everyone has the time to attend a City Council meeting, but that doesn’t make their opinion less valuable. We hope that this survey will allow us to hear from people who might not otherwise give feedback. The information we receive will be used to help drive our decision making in 2015.”
The survey will conclude on March 31, 2015.
