Community Engagement
Polco
The City of St. Anthony desires to hear from our community. The City values input from residents and understands that it isn't always convenient or feasible to attend public meetings to provide your input.
The city has launched a new online engagement platform for residents, called Polco. By using Polco we have another tool to use to collect feedback on city services, current ideas, and issues facing the City. Sign up today to get started! Polco has a strict privacy policy, and will never share your personal information. Residents’ individual information cannot be accessed by the City.

The City of St. Anthony conducted a community wide livability survey in the Fall of 2022, to ensure that we are building the community our residents want and providing a high level of service.
The survey focuses on following ten key facets of community livability: Economy, Mobility, Community Design, Utilities, Safety, Natural Environment, Parks and Recreation, Health and Wellness, Education, Arts and Culture, Inclusivity & Engagement.
The summer of 2022, the city conducted a communications survey, asking residents for feedback about our current communications tools to ensure they are meeting our residents’ needs. This survey asks a series of questions regarding current communication tools, including Village Notes, social media, and the city website.
