HUTCHINSON, Kan. — If you haven't filled out the Reno County Housing Survey yet, Hutchinson Mayor Greg Fast would ask you to take the time, no matter where you live in the county.
"You can go to RenoCountyHousing.com and take a survey there," Fast said. "We partnered with the county and with South Hutch. All of us chipped in a little bit of money to get this engagement going. You know, it's going to help us determine where to put funds, what people want as a housing policy, and it'll help move our housing commission in the right direction, you know, with the information. You know, our society has become a data-driven society and that's what this is. You know, we're trying to get...I took the housing assessment the other day myself and it's similar to what the census would ask, some of the questions, and I think we're going to get very accurate information for specifically our town and county."
The idea is to give a chance for anonymous public feedback.
"You don't have to put your name on it," Fast said. "I will say that the current council, myself, the rest of us, we do want to hear from the public. We may not always agree. We will listen. We will call you back. I think that our actions have shown that we are transparent. We want communication and we're doing everything to try to get that communication."
