(KAIR)--The City of Atchison is working to make residents in the neighborhood surrounding Atchison’s north side LFM Park aware of an upcoming, in person survey.

According to a release, the City of Atchison has hired Governmental Assistance Services to conduct door-to-door survey in that neighborhood.

The City explains that the purpose of the survey “is to qualify LFM Park for a Community Development Block Grant opportunity.”

The survey is set to start next week.

Survey takers will identify themselves and ask a short list of household questions, with any financial information obtained to be kept “strictly confidential and will not become public or be shared with the Atchison elected officials or staff,” and no names will be attached to surveys, which are separate from the U.S. Census.

The release outlines possible, future park improvements, including the installation of a splash pad, the addition of lighting for the new basketball courts, the replacement of the picnic shelter, new park benches, sidewalk improvements, playground updates, and accessible vehicle parking.

The survey, the release says, “is vital to future funding opportunities in [the Atchison] community.”
