Mayor Colleen Smook is encouraging Thompson residents, along with frequent visitors to the area, to fill a survey about public safety concerns they may have.

The city says the survey asks respondents to not only express their sense of safety and its causes, but also their sense of community.

The survey is a part of the development of the Community Safety and Well-Being Action Plan, which the city is working on in partnership with the Ma-Mow-We-Tak Friendship Centre and the Thompson RCMP.

Residents can fill out the survey online at thompson.ca, or pick up a paper copy either at city hall or the Ma-Mow-We-Tak Friendship Centre.

The survey will be available until August 12.
