FREDERICK COUNTY BUDGET PRIORITIES SURVEY

Did you miss the county’s budget town halls? You still have a real opportunity to shape next year’s priorities — and your voice matters.

This survey is one of the most direct ways to show our elected officials that residents want safe, connected bicycling and walking infrastructure. When more people speak up, the county is far more likely to invest in the projects that make our streets safer, healthier, and more accessible for everyone.

Take a few minutes to share what you think Frederick County should prioritize in the upcoming budget. Your input can help active transportation become a higher budget priority.
