1 The City of Durango Community Interest and Opinion Survey Executive Summary Overview ETC Institute administered a community interest and opinion survey for the City of Durango between January and March of The survey was administered as part of the City s efforts to establish priorities for the future development of parks, trails, recreation facilities, and programs. The survey results will aid the City of Durango in taking a resident driven approach to making decisions that will enrich the future of our community and positively affect the lives of its residents. A prior survey was administered in Methodology ETC Institute mailed a survey packet to a random sample of households in the City of Durango. Each survey packet contained a cover letter, a copy of the survey, and a postage paid return envelope. Residents who received the survey were given the option of returning the survey by mail or completing it on line at Ten days after the surveys were mailed, ETC Institute sent s and placed phone calls to the households that received the survey to encourage participation. The s contained a link to the on line version of the survey to make it easy for residents to complete the survey. To prevent people who were not residents of the City of Durango from participating, everyone who completed the survey on line was required to enter their home address prior to submitting the survey. ETC Institute then matched the addresses that were entered on line with the addresses that were originally selected for the random sample. If the address from a survey completed online did not match one of the addresses selected for the sample, the on line survey was not counted. The goal was to obtain completed surveys from at least 400 residents. The goal was exceeded with a total of 496 residents completing the survey. The overall results for the sample of 496 households have a precision of at least +/ 4. at the 95% level of confidence. This report contains the following: Charts showing the overall results of the survey (Section 1) Priority Investment Rating (PIR) that identifies priorities for facilities and programs (Section 2) Benchmarking analysis comparing the City s results to national results (Section 3) Tabular data showing the overall results for all questions on the survey (Section 4) A copy of the survey instrument (Section 5) The major findings of the survey are summarized below and on the following pages.

2 Overall Use and Ratings When asked to indicate all the City of Durango recreation activities their household has participated in or visited during the past year 93% of respondents indicated that someone in their household has visited the Animas River Trail or walking, hiking and running trails during the past 12 months. Respondents were also asked to indicate if they have used different facilities or programs offered by the City of Durango during the past year. For each of the items the respondent s household has used or participated in they were asked to rate the condition of the item on a scale of 4 to 1, where 4 means excellent and 1 means poor. Trails were the most used item with 92% of respondents indicating someone in their household have used trails within the past 12 months, 8 of households have used parks, 7 of households have used open spaces, 7 of households have used recreation facilities, and 39% of households have used recreation programs. Based on the sum of excellent and good responses 93% of households were satisfied with the condition of the open spaces they have visited, 92% were satisfied with the condition of parks, 91% were satisfied with the condition of trails, 91% were satisfied with the condition of recreation facilities, and 8 were satisfied with recreation programs. Overall, respondents indicated they were very satisfied with the overall condition of all five areas that were assessed. Preserving Open Space Areas Respondents were informed that some land and greenways around the City of Durango could be preserved as open space areas. They were then asked to indicate their level of agreement with eight different areas being preserved for open space. Based on the sum of strongly agree and agree responses the four areas of land respondents most agree should be preserved as open space areas include: Animas River greenway north of town (8), Ridgeline property within and around Durango (87%), Horse Gulch/Durango Mesa Park (Ewing Mesa) (81%), and Animas River greenway south of town (81%). Based on the sum of respondents top four choices the same four areas (Animas River greenway north of town (6), Ridgeline property within and around Durango (53%), Horse Gulch/Durango Mesa Park (Ewing Mesa) (4), and Animas River greenway south of town (41%)) were identified as the most important areas for the City of Durango to preserve as open space. Support for Improvements Respondents were given a list of 26 potential actions the City of Durango could take to improve the parks, open space, trails, and recreation system. Based on the sum of very supportive and somewhat supportive responses the following items received the most support from respondents: maintaining/repairing older park facilities (92%), purchasing land for parks and recreation facilities and trails (77%), and extending the Animas River Trail (77%). Respondents were least supportive of developing an indoor turf facility and developing outdoor pickleball courts. Based on the sum of respondents top four choices they are most willing to fund maintaining and repairing older park facilities (45%) and extending the Animas River Trail (36%) with their City tax dollars.

3 Open Space Needs and Priorities Open Space Needs: Respondents were asked to identify if their household had a need for 16 open space areas/opportunities and rate how well their needs for each were currently being met. Based on this analysis, ETC Institute was able to estimate the number of households in the community that had the greatest unmet need for various open space areas/opportunities. The three open space areas/opportunities with the highest percentage of households that indicated a need for the area were: trails for walking, hiking, and running (90%), river and stream corridors (7), and wildlife habitats with trails (73%). When ETC Institute analyzed the needs in the community, only one area/opportunity, trails for walking, hiking, and running, had a need that affected more than 6,000 households. ETC Institute estimates a total of 2,612 of the 7,672 households in the City of Durango have unmet needs for community buffers from development. The estimated number of households that have unmet needs for each of the 16 open space areas/opportunities that were assessed is shown below. Page iii

4 Open Space Importance: In addition to assessing the needs for each area/opportunity, ETC Institute also assessed the importance that residents placed on each area/opportunity. Based on the sum of respondents top four choices, the most important areas/opportunities to residents were: trails for walking, hiking and running (77%), river and stream corridors (4), and trails for biking (4). The percentage of residents who selected each area/opportunity as one of their top four choices is shown below. Page iv

5 Priorities for Open Space Investments: The Priority Investment Rating (PIR) was developed by ETC Institute to provide organizations with an objective tool for evaluating the priority that should be placed on parks and recreation investments. The Priority Investment Rating (PIR) equally weights (1) the importance that residents place on open space areas and (2) how many residents have unmet needs for the open space area. [ Details regarding the methodology for this analysis are provided in Section 2 of this report.] Based the Priority Investment Rating (PIR), the following four open space areas/opportunities were rated as high priorities for investment: Trails for walking, hiking, and running (PIR=132) Community buffers from development (PIR=131) Wildlife habitats with trails (PIR=110) River and stream corridors (PIR=105) The chart below shows the Priority Investment Rating for each of the open space areas/opportunities that were assessed on the survey.

6 Facility Needs and Priorities Facility Needs: Respondents were also asked to identify if their household had a need for 32 recreation facilities and amenities and rate how well their needs for each were currently being met. Based on this analysis, ETC Institute was able to estimate the number of households in the community that had the greatest unmet need for various facilities. The three recreation facilities with the highest percentage of households that indicated a need for the facility were: bike and pedestrian hard surface trails (86%), hiking and running natural surface trails (82%), and neighborhood parks (7). When ETC Institute analyzed the needs in the community, only two facilities, bike and pedestrian hard surface trails and hiking and running natural surface trails, had a need that affected more than 6,000 households. ETC Institute estimates a total of 3,516 of the 7,672 households in the City of Durango have unmet needs for lake recreation, this item had the largest number of estimated households whose need is currently unmet for the facility. The estimated number of households that have unmet needs for each of the 32 facilities that were assessed is shown below. Page vi

7 Facility Importance: In addition to assessing the needs for each facility, ETC Institute also assessed the importance that residents placed on each facility. Based on the sum of respondents top four choices, the most important facilities to residents were: hiking and running natural surface trails (50%) and bike and pedestrian hard surface trails (3). The percentage of residents who selected each facility as one of their top four choices is shown in the chart below. Page vii

8 Priorities for Facility Investments: Based the priority investment rating (PIR), which was described briefly on page v of this Executive Summary and is described in more detail in Section 2 of this report, the following three facilities were rated as high priorities for investment: Based the Priority Investment Rating (PIR), the following three facilities were rated as high priorities for investment: Lake recreation (PIR=143) Hiking and running natural surface trails (PIR=134) Bike and pedestrian hard surface trails (PIR=120) The chart below shows the Priority Investment Rating for each of the facilities/amenities that were assessed on the survey.

9 Programming Needs and Priorities Programming Needs. Respondents were also asked to identify if their household had a need for.2 recreational programs and rate how well their needs for each program were currently being met. Based on this analysis, ETC Institute was able to estimate the number of households in the community that had unmet needs for each program. The three programs with the highest percentage of households that had needs were: adult fitness and wellness programs (57%), special events/festivals (53%), and camping and backpacking (4). In addition to having the some of the highest total need, two programs also have some of the highest unmet need among the 32 programming related areas that were assessed. ETC Institute estimates a total of 1,812 households have unmet needs for life skill classes, 1,773 households have unmet needs for adult fitness and wellness programs, and 1,692 households have unmet needs for special events/festivals. The estimated number of households that have unmet needs for each of the 32 programs that were assessed is shown in the chart below. Page ix

10 Program Importance. In addition to assessing the needs for each program, ETC Institute also assessed the importance that residents place on each program. Based on the sum of respondents top four choices, the three most important programs to residents were: adult fitness and wellness programs (29%), special events/festivals (27%), and camping and backpacking ().

33 Section 2 Priority Investment Rating Page 20

34 Priority Investment Rating City of Durango The Priority Investment Rating (PIR) was developed by ETC Institute to provide governments with an objective tool for evaluating the priority that should be placed on parks and recreation investments. The Priority Investment Rating was developed by ETC Institute to identify the facilities and programs residents think should receive the highest priority for investment. The priority investment rating reflects the importance residents place on items (sum of top 4 choices) and the unmet needs (needs that are only being partly or not met) for each facility/program relative to the facility/program that rated the highest overall. Since decisions related to future investments should consider both the level of unmet need and the importance of facilities and programs, the PIR weights each of these components equally. The PIR reflects the sum of the Unmet Needs Rating and the Importance Rating as shown in the equation below: PIR = UNR + IR For example, suppose the Unmet Needs Rating for playgrounds is 26.5 (out of 100) and the Importance Rating for playgrounds is 52 (out of 100), the Priority Investment Rating for playgrounds would be 78.5 (out of 200). How to Analyze the Charts: High Priority Areas are those with a PIR of at least 100. A rating of 100 or above generally indicates there is a relatively high level of unmet need and residents generally think it is important to fund improvements in these areas. Improvements in this area are likely to have a positive impact on the greatest number of households. Medium Priority Areas are those with a PIR of A rating in this range generally indicates there is a medium to high level of unmet need or a significant percentage of residents generally think it is important to fund improvements in these areas. Low Priority Areas are those with a PIR below 50. A rating in this range generally indicates there is a relatively low level of unmet need and residents do not think it is important to fund improvements in these areas. Improvements may be warranted if the needs of very specialized populations are being targeted. The following pages show the Unmet Needs Rating, Importance Rating, and Priority Investment Rating for facilities and programs. Page 21
