Here’s the link: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/northshoalcreekVPS
The survey is an important part of North Shoal Creek’s planning process. You’ll be shown around 30 photos of various kinds of buildings, and you decide if they’re appropriate for our neighborhood and, if so, which parts of the neighborhood they’d fit in. It’ll take about 15 minutes.
Survey closes January 8, 2017.
