Sebastopol Community Priorities Survey & Poll Results
Community Priorities Survey Results
The City of Sebastopol and its elected leaders are committed to maintaining our local quality of life and supporting the core services and infrastructure that our residents, business, and visitors rely on every day. The City is currently facing a number of challenges, including rising costs and the potential for budget deficits in coming years.
As part of planning to meet these demands, and potentially present options for additional revenue to support local services, the City asked residents to give feedback on their priorities and help guide decision making through a survey held for several weeks in June and July 2024. Over 1,000 responses were received.
Respondents identified the top three priorities as:
- Providing effective public safety, including 911 emergency medical/police/fire response
- Managing city finances
- City response to floods, wildfires, and other natural disasters
Poll Results
The City also contracted with Probolsky Research to conduct a City Services Measure Voter Poll June 27 – July 7, 2024, with live-interviewer telephone and online responses among City voters.
A total of 300 voters were surveyed.
