Roads & Traffic Management
In 2022, the City conducted a Citizen Satisfaction Survey to inform budgeting priorities. The ETC Institute, a national leader in market research for local government organizations since 1982, led the survey on the City's behalf. The City Council has concentrated on ensuring the top priorities are aligned with the wants and needs of the residents. Two of the top priorities from the survey are road maintenance and alleviation of traffic congestion. These priorities are evident throughout the FY2025 budget, including projects such as the CR-52 railroad flyover, Highway 261 widening, and traffic light intersection improvements, to name a few. Along with the City's comprehensive plan, the citizen survey gives clear direction on what the citizens want the City to provide and accomplish.
