The survey was designed to obtain statistically valid results from <br />households throughout the City of Atlanta. The survey was administered by a combination of <br />mail and phone. <br />Leisure Vision worked extensively with City of Atlanta officials in the development of the <br />survey questionnaire. This work included conducting a series of stakeholder interviews and <br />focus groups in the City of Atlanta. This work <br />allowed the survey to be tailored to issues of <br />strategic importance to effectively plan the <br />future system. <br />Over 1,400 surveys were completed for the <br />survey, including a representative sampling <br />within each of 7 geographic areas. All survey <br />results were broken down by gender, age of <br />respondent, length of residency, as well as <br />geographic location. The survey results were <br />further compared to national benchmarks of <br />citizen responses compiled by Leisure Vision <br />from communities across the country. <br />" Ron, -1 greatly appreciated your guidance in developing our survey questions. You kept <br />pushing us to think through the data we needed and the appropriate approach to asking <br />questions.
