Survey Results

At the end of 2008 the Governing Body completed an opinion survey in order to understand the needs of our Borough residents. Here are some of the results as they relate to programs and resident needs:

  • “How do you rate sports & recreational programs offered in the Borough?” Ranked 19th out of 20 key Borough services
  • “Would you like to see a broader offering of community programs for our youth, families and seniors?” 66% said yes
  • “Are you aware of programs that can help those in need?” 52% said no
  • “Do you feel the Borough should do more in helping those in need?” 57% said yes

In response to these results we have put in place several committees, and as outlined in the Project Garnet article we are working on developing and enhancing community and recreational facilities. The Community Wellbeing, Parks & Recreation, and Events Committees are interested in enhancing and creating programs for all segments of Haddon Heights’ residents. The survey was developed to gather your opinions on potential programs. The results of this survey have helped us focus our efforts.

The Haddon Heights' Opinion Survey was mailed to all 2,748 property owners in the Borough of Haddon Heights in November of 2008. This benchmark survey received back 942 responses representing a 34.3% response rate, a true and accurate reflection of the opinions of the entire Borough. Survey results will be revealed over the next few months as Mayor and Council have the opportunity to review and analyze the data, and put together recommendations and plans.
