Regional Leaders Show Hunger for Information
May 13th, 09
Key leaders from around the region flocked to presentations this
week presented by the Lexington-Bluegrass Association of REALTORS® (LBAR.) LBAR rolled out their new Regional Datamine
and their landmark public opinion survey efforts. The LBAR Regional Datamine brings together
the best in information with public opinion surveys and helps provide leaders
with critical insights as they make decisions that affect citizens of the
Bluegrass. Presentations of survey
results were delivered to elected officials, business and community leaders in
Anderson, Clark, Fayette, Franklin, Jessamine, Montgomery and Scott Counties
throughout the week of May 4-8.
Spearheaded
by the LBAR Economic And Development Strategy (LEADS) Committee, this project
recognizes the importance for the average citizen’s voice to be heard on the
increasingly high‐profile discussions regarding what is being
referred to as “regionalism.” With members in many Central Kentucky counties, LBAR is uniquely suited
to give citizens a chance to voice how they define the region by
simply asking them.
LBAR President Gale Fulton says, "The association is
concerned about the well-being of central Kentucky residents. We believe very
strongly in working to promote a great quality of life for those in our area. In an effort to
understand what is important to the people of the region, LBAR engages in ongoing
research. The latest round of surveys was conducted across ten central Kentucky
counties to help us better understand lifestyles, daily life decision-making
and key quality of life issues.”
