Above / The 2017 Riverwalk Amenities Survey, a 5-minute survey providing residents with a chance to weigh in online regarding the growth and development of the brick path, will close on April 23, 2017. All zip codes (especially local zip codes 60540, 60563, 60564 and 60565) are welcome to provide feedback. Thanks!
The Naperville Riverwalk Commission is calling for community feedback in its first ever community survey. The survey, which marks the Riverwalk’s 35th anniversary, is the first time in the Riverwalk’s history that the Naperville community will have the chance to weigh in on its amenities.
The survey gives residents an opportunity to voice their opinion. It also will give the Riverwalk Commission a better sense of how the community engages with the Riverwalk and its nearby attractions including Centennial Beach, the Riverwalk Café and the Carillon/Moser Tower.
“The Riverwalk is here to be enjoyed by the people of Naperville, so there’s no better group of people to hear from as we plan for the future,” said Geoff Roehll, Riverwalk Commission Chairman. “This survey will help us better understand how people use the Riverwalk now, and how they want to see it improve moving forward. We want to hear from everyone about what they love and what they think we could do better.”
The results of the survey questions on improvement projects will be taken into account as the Commission plans for the future of the Riverwalk.
Last call for feedback on April 23, 2017
The survey, launched on April 1, 2017, is open to all Naperville-area residents and can be completed in just a few minutes. It can be found and completed at www.surveymonkey.com/r/MZ3YLDW.
UPDATE 5PM, April 24, 2017 / The Naperville Riverwalk survey has closed. Thanks for your interest.
