Survey Closes Feb 28, 2025!
Allard Community League (established in 2023) takes great pride in creating spaces and events in community. To ensure that the amenities and experiences meet our neighbours' expectations, ACL is administering this Neighbourhood and Community Engagement Needs Assessment survey to understand residents’ needs and desires better. The survey results will guide ACL’s strategic plan for the upcoming year and allow Allard Community League to better allocate resources to meet the needs of our community. Specifically, we're looking for support for expanding our boundaries (Inclusion of Cavanagh in ACL boundary) and building a permanent community garden (Use of Community Spaces &/or Parks).
If all questions are answered, the survey should take no more than 15 minutes to complete. Individual responses will be kept anonymous. Click here to start the survey.
Thank you for participating and helping to make our community better!
