This is Phase 4 of Cleveland Documenters local government meeting survey assignment. This assignment will be available for a limited time.

WHAT: On this assignment, Documenters will survey Cleveland residents about local government meetings in the City of Cleveland, such as the ones held by Cleveland City Council and the Board of Zoning Appeals, where important decisions are discussed and voted on by elected or appointed officials.

THE GOAL is to help us understand how Cleveland residents access local government meetings and what barriers they may face.

This assignment is a survey with a few deeper interview questions. We expect that each survey will take, on average, 20 to 25 minutes.

WHO: Survey subjects should be: *Residents of Cleveland

*People in your networks: friends, family members, neighbors, co-workers, etc.

*People who are not typically heard from in traditional news settings

HOW: 1 assignment = 2 surveys submitted and 1 assignment checklist submitted

*You may apply for this assignment any time before July 12th at 5pm.

*If selected, you will have until July 18th to complete the assignment.

*Assignment periods will be designated by phases (in other words, Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, etc.).
