Village Seeks Input on Downtown Parking

The Village of Waunakee is in the process of completing a downtown parking study. The study is to provide data on the current and future parking needs in the downtown. The final report will provide information about the capacity and use of existing parking facilities in the downtown. As part of the process we are seeking input from the public and business owners. The survey is intended to create opportunities to hear from people who park downtown, understand business parking needs, and develop parking strategies that support community goals for economic development, housing, and transportation in our downtown. The survey has 8 questions and 1 comment column which takes about 2-5 minutes to finish. Your feedback is important and will be included in our analysis. The survey can be accessed through the link below and will be accepted until November 30, 2018.
