City of Silverton Business Survey

Purpose. The City of Silverton Planning Services section is conducting a survey of the Silverton Central Business District. We would like to gather your input and views about the business district. The survey is one of the recommendations from the City of Silverton 2008 Comprehensive Plan which examined land use, transportation, physical characteristics of the business district and its dynamics. This survey aims at establishing plans and strategies for improvements, for new development and redevelopment, and for visual management of its character, in order to make the business district economically more viable and with a stronger aesthetic. Your responses will help us to better understand current conditions in the business district and identify opportunities for improvement. The survey should take about 5 to10 minutes of your time.
