Envision Bend, a local nonprofit organization, launched a poll  Monday to gauge community support for a variety of strategies it says can ensure livability in Bend.
The poll asks respondents to choose their top five of 15 potential strategies in each of four focus areas. Focus areas include Guiding our Growth, Building an Economy for Everyone, Ensuring a Safe Healthy Environment and Cultivating an Inclusive Community.
The strategies were formed after consulting with nearly 2,500 residents who participated in outreach work since 2022.
Poll results will be utilized by four action teams that will meet this spring to research and vet the potential strategies for use in a five-year action plan. The poll closes on March 17 and can be found on the website envisionbend.org.
