Online Survey Still Available for Input

In mid-December the District of 100 Mile House rolled out its new online survey to capture community feedback on the Economic Development Plan that is currently in production. As noted by Joanne Doddridge, Director of Economic Development and Planning for the District of 100 Mile House “this extensive online survey will provide feedback directly from residents and local South Cariboo communities on what our economic development activities should focus on.”

As part of the development of the overall strategy, EDCD Consulting also engaged in a “secret shopper” campaign in October 2020. This “secret shopper” campaign focused on the first impressions that visitors to 100 Mile House would receive from both the physical layout of the community and from the community and business members. Results from this campaign have been brought forward and are being considered as part of the overall plan.

The “secret shopper” visit found a lot of positives in 100 Mile House with particular emphasis on how well our businesses did greeting visitors, how friendly and informed our community was, and how responsive to trip advisor and other social platforms the businesses were.

“I am really pleased that the community continues to uphold the pride and friendliness that we have become known for” says Mitch Campsall, Mayor of the District of 100 Mile House. “Even through the tough times, our community has remained positive and is moving forward. This was so encouraging to hear from the project consultants and we look forward to sharing more information through the process.”

The online survey is open until January 23, 2021 and all residents in 100 Mile House and the South Cariboo are encouraged to complete the survey.  The overall economic development plan has an expected completion of May 2021 and it is important that everyone participate in the survey now so that all responses can be considered through the process.
