City Services Satisfaction Survey 2008 City Services Satisfaction Survey | Page 73

Fees and Taxes
The majority of residents feel they are getting their moneys worth when it comes to the
services the city provides. Sixty seven percent say they are getting their moneys worth.
However, this is significantly lower that last year’s rating of 75 percent. Despite the drop
in this rating, two out of three still say that the city is headed in the right direction.
Most respondents (69%) say they would prefer the city keep taxes and services about
where they are. While not significant, over the past three years there has been an
increase in the number of people wanting the city to decrease taxes and decrease the
amount of services available, up to fourteen percent in 2008.
