The website was developed to gather information on sentiment related to economic development in Hastings. A 19-question survey allows the public to provide specific details on the types of economic development they would prefer.
Also, there is the opportunity to provide open-ended input through a written comment portal. The website has area maps and data for the Hastings Census Designated Place, which is the statistical area that best represents the former town of Hastings.
