BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
The Listen and Learn Ad Hoc Subcommittee worked with staff to develop and disseminate a community survey in English and Spanish at Fiesta La Ballona in October 2021, and electronically on the City’s website. The community survey was designed for the EHRAC to better understand how to improve serving the community and to share information regarding the functions and roles of City departments, available services, and how to access such services. The Ad Hoc subcommittee reviewed the ten (10) results with the EHRAC during the February 22, 2022 regular meeting.
The Listen and Learn Ad Hoc Subcommittee is requesting staff to disseminate the same community survey in English and Spanish another time. During the July 26, 2022 regular meeting, the EHRAC will discuss alternative options for dissemination of the community survey.
