Academy Community Center Survey
Please take a moment to have your voice heard about the potential future programming at the Academy Community Center. The Town’s Academy Community Center Advisory Committee is conducting a survey of Town residents to collect community feedback on potential uses for the facility that will satisfy needs that are currently unmet or underserved by existing town facilities and services. Your feedback is a critical piece of ensuring that the redevelopment of the site includes space that is appropriately configured to best serve those community needs. The survey should take 3-5 minutes to complete (clarification questions may be added based on your selections). Please note that your responses should also represent the needs and interests of children (and grandchildren) in the community who will not be able to complete the survey themselves. Multiple selections are allowed for questions about community needs. Thank you for providing your valuable input and helping to improve our community! This survey will close on January 13, 2023.
