As part of its ongoing Livable Centers Initiative, the city of Fayetteville has posted an online survey asking residents about various aspects of the downtown area. The 18-question survey, which can be accessed via the link at www.fayetteville-ga.gov/news/participate-in-the-downtown-community-survey/, refers to a specific portion of downtown Fayetteville noted on the survey’s map.

Questions focus on how often residents visit the area and what sites they visit, what types of amenities would encourage more visits downtown, which kinds of additional housing options might be useful, restaurant and retail preferences, accessibility for walking and biking, improvements for open spaces and priorities for aesthetic features. The survey also asks respondents to rank 10 types of infrastructure and quality-of-life investments the city might make. Changes to the downtown area already include a new City Hall and park complex scheduled for completion this year, as well as more parking spaces and crosswalks in the central square.
