Voice Your Opinions

It’s that time of year again! The Lexington County Council is rolling out its 2024 County-wide Citizen Engagement Study. This isn’t just any survey; it’s your chance to weigh in on what you think about public services and how our tax dollars are being spent. Every two years, this study helps the council get a finger on the pulse of the community’s needs and priorities, and guess what? Your voice is a big part of that!

Whether you care deeply about parks and recreation, road maintenance, or public safety, this survey is all about YOU. It’s designed to assess and track how residents feel about the services available in Lexington County. Plus, it dives into what issues are most important to you and your family.

Privacy First!

Now, for those of you who are a bit skeptical about sharing your thoughts, let me assure you—all answers will be confidential and anonymous. Nobody likes their opinions being aired like dirty laundry! The results will be pooled together with feedback from folks all around the county to give the Council solid data to help them plan a budget that accurately reflects what Lexington residents prioritize.

How to Participate
