District 10 Surveys

Here in District 10, we're already looking "down the road" for repairs andupgrades. We've been hard at work reviewing and tweaking the 2018 streetrepair schedule, but we are always on the lookout for the big projects that cantruly transform District 10. We've started a running list of future bond projectsfor consideration, but we need your help in guiding us to what District 10 needsmost. Please help us determine what your priorities are for the future 2022-2027 Bond by completing this survey. It's not too early for us to start thisprocess at our level.

We'd like to gauge our neighbors on their desire for a homestead taxexemption, for them to assign a monetary value to what they consider relief,and what services they are OK with being reduced in the City Budget in order toreceive a homestead exemp on. If a resident is not willing to cut services inorder to receive a tax break, that's valuable informa on. If a resident considersan extra $100 in tax reduc on a real relief, that's also valuable informa on. Theresults of this survey will help guide our office as we push forward with taxrelief options for our residents. Please participate in our survey, here.
