How would you rate the overall appearance of the city? Excellent – 25.0% Good –66.7% Fair – 0% Poor – 8.3% Don’t Know/Refused – 0% Comments: 1) Lots of empty buildings, especially commercial; also three mobile home parks are getting old and do not enhance our city, 2) Too much spot zoning to benefit business, 3) Everything is very accessible. 2. How would you describe your overall feeling of safety in the city? Very Safe – 50.0% Somewhat Safe – 41.7% Unsafe – 0% Don’t Know/Refused – 8.3% Comments: 1) So much crime next door in Roseville - ? is it coming here?, 2) Live in the North Star Estates Mobile home Park. Would like to see a better presence of police. The reason being that we seem to have an influx of Hispanic people now and they do not get permits for rebuilding or have too many vehicles that crowd the roadways and make it sometimes hard to get around plus loud noises, such as music and dogs barking all the time. Have complained to sheriff’s department twice but by the time they get here the people have turned down their music. 3. How would you rate the overall quality of fire protection services in the city? Excellent – 66.6% Good – 16.7% Fair – 0% Poor – 0% Don’t Know/Refused – 16.7% Comments: None
