COMMUNITY SURVEY
The Housing And Neighborhood Development Services (HANDS) division of the City of Palm Bay, in conjunction with the Brevard County
HOME Consortium, is conducting a survey to identify community priorities for the expenditure of Federal and State assistance to low and
moderate-income families/households. The survey results will be one tool used to develop the 2016 – 2021 Consolidated Plan that prioritizes
the expenditures of these funds. Please help us by completing the survey. Your responses will remain anonymous. Check the box in front of
each community priority in the list below that is important to you or your household (YOU MAY SELECT UP TO 3 CHOICES IN EACH
CATEGORY) as well as, the household information at the end of the survey. Use the box at the bottom of the page to list any community
priorities that you believe should be added to the list. Persons with disabilities or non-English speaking respondents, needing assistance
