Want your say in St. Cloud? Use FlashVote!

If you live in St. Cloud, you can help improve your community, one short survey at a time.

Signing up takes just one minute, and your input would go into the decisions city leaders and officials make.

The city is working with FlashVote to engage the community and to gather valuable input from residents. Residents can sign up online at https://www.flashvote.com/cityofstcloudfl or call 775-2352240 to participate by phone or text. Sign up takes less than one minute, officials say, and your input is kept anonymous. Personal or demographic information collected by FlashVote is never shared.

At sign up, users determine how surveys are received— email, text or phone call. They will receive a notification whenever there is a new survey and will have 48 hours to participate before voting closes. Once a survey is closed, those who participated will automatically receive a summary of the overall results and be able to see how their responses compare to the group.

“We often hear from our residents through social media or phone calls, and we are excited to add this new opportunity for residents to provide us their input,” St. Cloud Communications Director Maryemma Bachelder said. “The input we receive through these surveys will help inform decision making at the City on topics that are important to all our residents.”
