Our National Community Survey, in partnership with Polco, has officially launched. Randomly selected households will receive mailed survey invitations over the next few weeks. If you receive an invite, don’t throw it out! Please follow the instructions and share your input. Your participation in this survey will help leadership set priorities and develop policies and programs to effectively serve our community. The survey allows more people to participate in shaping the future of Schaumburg Township. All feedback will be anonymous, and any personal information will be securely stored by Polco.

If you aren’t selected for this initial survey, we’ll share a community-wide survey link soon. If you would like to receive an email notification when the community-wide survey is available, click the following link and register for a Polo profile at polco.us/n/res/signup.

Thank you for your time and feedback!
