SAPD emphasizes that responses are completely confidential, with the survey estimated to take approximately five minutes to complete.

“This survey has been designed to provide us with a current understanding of the perceptions of our residents, and to see how closely aligned our mission, vision and values are with the community’s expectations,” stated Assistant Chief Anthony Cuthbert. “We firmly believe that successful communities listen to each other and center needs in a flexible way, and this survey is an essential step in our commitment to fostering a stronger relationship between law enforcement and the citizens we share.”

The SAPD underscores the importance of community participation, highlighting that the feedback received will aid in improving services, processes, and the overall reputation of the department. The survey, which opened recently, will remain available until Friday, May 3.
