Each year, Sarasota County asks citizens about the issues that are important to them and asks them to evaluate the effectiveness and efficiency of county government’s performance. County officials use the results of the Citizens Survey to guide decisions, plan programs and improve the delivery of services.

Sarasota County is a leader in surveying citizens to give them an opportunity to express their views. Starting in 1992, the county has conducted surveys for 18 years. Today, many city and county governments depend on surveys to get citizen feedback.
