Join Zencity and ICMA for an exclusive look at brand-new results from the latest Zencity Community Survey, offering a unique snapshot of resident priorities across the U.S. In this session, we’ll begin with a 15-minute presentation of the survey’s key findings, followed by a 35-minute discussion with local government leaders on how to make these insights actionable. Panelists will share practical approaches for applying survey data in their own communities, from setting priorities to driving meaningful policy and budget decisions.
We’ll close with a 10-minute Q&A to answer your questions and explore how you can leverage these insights in your own work.

Whether you’re seeking to better understand your community’s needs or looking for tested strategies to put resident input into action, this webinar will provide fresh perspectives and real-world examples to guide your efforts.
