What We Heard - Step 2a Engagement Summary

Engagement for Step 2a began in December 2022, following the completion of Step 1. Findings from the Step 1 survey resulted in the development of the draft vision, objectives and development expectations policy as we begin to carve out the Clayton Corridor Plan. In Step 2a, we are building on these ideas. In this step we jumped into topics about the hearts of Clayton, moving around Clayton, and its community amenities. To promote the survey, we delivered postcards, ran a social media campaign, and did a media release. Components of the Step 2a engagement included:

  1. Survey
  2. Online Mapping Exercise
  3. Big Ideas

Our “What We Heard” report, which provides a summary of the Step 2a engagement and survey results is now available.

Thank you to the nearly 340 people who took part in the survey and those that participated in our online engagement tools. Since the launch of the Clayton Corridor Plan online platform in May of 2022, over 16,500 people have visited the Clayton Corridor project page. Of those, over 1,103 visited one or more of the information items, questions, polls, or tools. At the peak of engagement, the site had 517 visitors on a single day.

As part of the survey analysis we looked at who we reached. Below are some of the demographic groups we heard from. As we move into the next phase of engagement we will continue to explore how to better reach a representative sample of those living in the community.

Representative reach:

  • 52% of respondents were aged 40-64 (32% of residents in the plan area are aged 40-69)
  • 86% of respondents own their home (80% of residents in the plan area own their home)

Opportunity to improve:

  • 9% of respondents rent (20% of residents in the plan area rent)
  • 1% of respondents were youth (27% of residents in the plan area are youth)
