Village Seeks Community Input With 2 Surveys In Buffalo Grove

BUFFALO GROVE, IL — The Village of Buffalo Grove needs your help. Now through Aug. 11, residents can participate in two surveys, each designed to provide the Village feedback about "Moving BG Forward" initiatives.

Officials said the surveys — available here — each should take no more than 10 minutes to complete. The community branding survey (vbg.org/brandsurvey) gathers perspectives of BG to inform the village's authentic identity as a community, and the comprehensive plan survey (vbg.org/compplansurvey) seeks residents' visions for the future of BG specifically in regard to its physical environment.

"As we look ahead to our future, both short-term and long-term, we want to ensure we understand who we are as a community and that we are aligned around where we want to go," Buffalo Grove President Eric Smith said in a news release. "I encourage each and every community member to take our Moving BG Forward surveys, and we will work to make BG the best it can be."

Officials said the Village is embarking on a journey to envision the future of Buffalo Grove with three major initiatives — the strategic plan, comprehensive plan and community branding. These research-driven initiatives seek to uncover the community’s authentic identity and its vision for the future. More about our Moving BG Forward initiatives is available at www.vbg.org/forward.
