FORT WALTON BEACH — City officials are asking residents to fill out an economic and business survey by the end of the month.

The 35-question survey, which is found at fwb.org, asks residents about their shopping preferences, as well as questions about the job market and other economic issues. Fort Walton Beach officials will use the information in current planning initiatives, such as the master plan for the city Commerce & Technology Park and the update of the city’s community redevelopment plan.

The survey is confidential and residents will not be asked for any specific personal contact information. To learn more, call city Development Services Manager Chris Frassetti at (850) 833-9604 or visit fwb.org/ctp.
