neighborhood survey results

To ensure that the LGDA is best representing the concerns and perspectives residents, we created and distributed a survey in January of 2024. We had 154 participants take the survey, most LGD residents but some in other neighborhoods.

​

The key takeaways were that people wanted the original affordable housing and grocery store that was presented in March 2022 as the development moving forward.  Also, the development of a TopGolf was overwhelmingly unpopular for a laundry list of reasons outlined in the long-form answers included in the survey.

 

See below for survey results. Click here to view long-form survey responses.  

"I strongly oppose because a Top Golf is not a suitable tenant and does not
complement the historic nature of this neighborhood. When the development group first presented at a town hall meeting in 2022, they stated that this location would consist of an apartment complex with a grocery store and a gym, not a Top Golf. Classic bate (sic) and switch."
