2025 Community Survey Findings Report
ETC Institute administered a community survey for the City of Newton in September 2025. The survey was conducted as part of the City’s effort to gather resident opinions and feedback on programs and services. The results of the survey will be used to help the City focus on future growth, especially land use, infrastructure, transportation, housing, and urban design. This is the first community survey ETC Institute has conducted for the City of Newton.
What is a comprehensive plan?
A comprehensive plan is a long-range planning document that guides the city’s future growth and development, its priorities, and its services.
It is a road map that helps us visualize where we want to go as a community and how we get there. Your input in the comprehensive planning process is ESSENTIAL in determining the destination — the vision — for the City of Newton.
