APPENDIX G: CITY OF ELK RIVER RESIDENT <br /> INTERVIEWS <br /> By mail, we get flyers from the City. I do use their website, but that's me going there, it's not <br /> pushed to me.They broadcast the City meetings,and I watch them. I also read Star News. <br /> How do you feel about the City of Elk River's current communication means? <br /> They do a pretty good job of communication. In the newspaper, you will see articles and a lot of <br /> content about city operations, initiatives and projects. Communication by mail is clear and <br /> sufficient. <br /> Are their certain modes of communication from the City of Elk River that would be more <br /> effective than others? <br /> Communication seems very effective. There is a Facebook group for City residents that the City <br /> Clerk posts on and answers questions on. There was a current issue with keeping chickens in <br /> your yard,the City clerk responded. <br /> Parks and Recreation <br /> Does anyone currently volunteer with any City of Elk River programs or initiatives? <br /> I work a lot with the school district. I also volunteer by coaching soccer. <br /> If so,how did you hear about these volunteering opportunities? <br /> Online there is a volunteer match that I use. It is not specific to Elk River. I do not always see Elk <br /> River specific opportunities. There is a community happening section in the paper. Things you <br /> do in the park. They could promote this more on social media with the Elk River citizen's page. <br /> The City may have to have a citizen post it. Having a City/community liaison would be good. Post <br /> opportunities and job openings. <br /> Why do you volunteer with specific programs and initiatives? <br /> For the enjoyment of serving. <br /> 0 <br /> Page 113 UNIVERSITY of ST.THOMAS <br /> �'-M--AGY�C] <br /> Opus College of Business <br />
