The new initiative, originally announced by Poloncarz in his 2025 State of the County address, reflects the county\u2019s commitment to listening to and engaging with residents and ensuring that county government remains responsive, transparent, and aligned with community needs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c \u2018Envision Erie\u2019 is a way for all residents to express what\u2019s important to them about Erie County, whether it\u2019s business, health, quality of life, education, infrastructure, or whatever might be on their mind. This is a way we can all have input, hopefully producing actionable ideas that can improve our county for future generations,\u201d Poloncarz said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEnvision Erie\u201d is a comprehensive community engagement initiative aimed at identifying the priorities, challenges and opportunities facing Erie County residents. The survey asks residents about a wide range of topics, including housing, public safety, economic development, public health, infrastructure, workforce development, and participation in local government.<\/p>\n<p>The goal of \u201cEnvision Erie\u201d is to collect meaningful, representative feedback from residents across Erie County\u2019s diverse communities and use that input to help guide county policy, programs and investments.
