Municipality looking for feedback in new survey

Perth South is asking for public engagement with a new survey for the new strategic plan.

Council is hoping to gain insight into what residents and business owners want to see in terms of the municipality's future. Things like service levels, recreational opportunities, community events and more are all part of the community survey.

The next few months will offer the public in-person community workshops, feedback sessions and focus groups.

Start by going to https://www.getinvolvedperthsouth.ca/ and registering. Once registered you can complete the survey and learn about the ways the strategic plan will be developed.

“This is a tremendous opportunity for Perth South residents to influence the way the Township designs its future. I am eager to hear from people, including my Council colleagues, about what they see in the future of Perth South. It’s a very exciting time,” said Perth South Mayor Jim Aitcheson.
