Explanation/Summary (attach supplement sheets as necessary.) SUMMARY: The Senior Community Center Task Force has looked into the feasibility of contracting survey services with Decision Resources. The cost would be approximately $5,500.00 for a 500 person survey, 100 questions to residents of each of the four cities and then 100 questions specifically to senior citizens of the quad city population. The survey would be a telephone survey. The survey would take approximately six weeks to complete. The Task Force was very much in favor of recommending to the individual City Councils approval of appropriating the percentage funding from each city for the completion of the survey. A sub-group of Seniors has been formed to work with Decision Resources in the development of questions for the survey. The percentage of funding for the City of Mounds View's share would be $792.00. Funding for the survey could be paid for out of the Recreation Fund. I received a scholarship for the Revenue Resources Management School last February and therefore the money which was originally budgeted for that expense has been saved. The $792.00 could therefore be funded with the monies saved due to a scholarship award.
