Community Survey

Written by mary on April 21st, 2013

Greetings Franz Park Residents –

The Franz Park Community Association would like to know how to better represent and serve the Franz Park community. We invite you to take a brief survey to tell us what you would like to see the community association do. We anticipate the survey will take you about 5 minutes.

Franz Park Community Association (FPCA) is a nonprofit community association with the goal of bringing people together to keep our neighborhood safe and neighbors informed about City processes and programs. Neighborhood participation gives you a stronger, united voice in civic life and joins us in shared neighborhood projects. The Franz Park neighborhood is in the city of St. Louis generally between Dale Ave., Manchester Ave. and St. Louis City’s western border. It is one of three neighborhoods which make up St. Louis’ Dogtown area.

Follow this link to access the survey https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1b4CTJAQopAnjBahqyCgiDbndg_domQI1R9tfqhEhFbo/viewform#start=invite

Thank you!

Franz Park Community Association Board of Directors
