The Rocky River Survey was an opportunity for public officials to gather the thoughts and opinions of residents. The outcomes of the survey assisted in the Master Plan process and policy formation. County Planning worked with the City of Rocky River to design, distribute, collect, and analyze the residential survey.

The printed survey consisted of 32 questions arranged by topics, which included parks and recreation, quality of life, commercial development, housing, transportation, communications, infrastructure, and city identity. Of the 1,400 mailed surveys, 503 were returned and included in the analysis.
