Survey says…
Cupertino on Nov. 12 launched a survey designed to get residents’ input on a variety of issues important to the community. The survey is open through Dec. 4; survey participants will be selected using a random sample, and respondents will be contacted by email, text or telephone. Data collected will help city council prioritize its goals for the next two years.
The city commissioned independent firms Godbe Research Associates and McGuire Research to conduct the survey. Godbe Research developed Cupertino’s inaugural Resident Satisfaction Survey in 1998 and conducted the survey every two to three years until the COVID-19 pandemic. The last completed survey was in 2017.
