STATEMENT OF WORK: (Narrative of work to be performed) Conduct a resident community survey to assess attitudes and/or satisfaction toward city services and programs, evaluate perceptions of the quality of life, and better understand community needs, concerns and priorities. B. CONSULTANT'S DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES: 3.1.1 Phase 1 - Research Design 3.1.1.1 Sample Preparation FM3 will construct a sample by randomly selecting stratified clusters of addresses from a list of all residential addresses in the City of Huntington Beach. FM3 will then match the addresses in the sample against public and commercial databases to acquire residents' contact information. In the end, each address in the sample will have at least a mailing address, but also potentially telephone numbers and/or email addresses for residents living at the address. FM3 will then analyze the sample and select which contact method to use for each address. While FM3 is acquiring and preparing the sample, we will also establish demographic and geographic quotas of your residents ages 18+ using data provided by the U.S. Census Bureau. FM3 will use those quotas as necessary during the data collection phase—and after the interviews are completed—to ensure the final sample reflects your community's overall adult population. 3.1.1.2 Questionnaire Design In designing the research for this project, FM3 will draw from its knowledge of public opinion survey methodology; our comprehensive review of the City of Huntington Beach's past survey research (including tracking past questions when appropriate); the City's current and future objectives and needs; and our own vast library of research for other municipalities. The process will begin with an initial kickoff meeting (either in-person or via conference call) between the FM3 team and City staff members assigned to this project, during which we will hold a comprehensive discussion of the topics the City would like to address, including any major issues or challenges that should be explored in the survey. FM3 will then present a first draft of the questionnaire to the City for review and comment. After collecting feedback on the first draft, we will revise and refine the survey. We foresee proceeding through several drafts, incorporating feedback from City staff before each revision, to develop a research instrument that will obtain all the information desired. Before interviewing commences, FM3 will secure approval from the appropriate City EXHIBIT A representative on the final version of the questionnaire. Once the questionnaire is approved, it will be translated into Spanish and other languages (if preferred). Though the final survey questionnaire will be developed with extensive input and collaboration from the City's team, FM3 anticipates that the final survey may assess the perceived quality of life in the City, the job being done by City government and key departments, the importance of and satisfaction with City services and programs, the most serious issues facing the City (including views on public safety, the local economy, homelessness, housing, social and racial equity and inclusion, and other issues), residents' priorities for the future, if they feel their voice is being heard, and if they feel the City has a need for additional funding to provide the city services. 3.1.1.3 Contact Method Preparation Because subsets of the sample will be invited to take the survey online, FM3 will create initial drafts of email, text, and (optional) postcard invitations for your review. Email, text, and postcard invitations will be tied to a specific address so that only one respondent per address can participate. (Email and text invitations will contain a unique link and postcard invitations will include a generic short link and a unique code.) Additionally, to elevate comfort levels in taking the survey, we recommend the invitations include your City seal or logo, with a note explaining you have hired an independent public opinion research firm to conduct a survey about local issues that are relevant to your residents, and electronically "signed" by a senior City official. Please note that FM3's use of text messages to distribute survey invitations has been vetted by independent legal counsel and determined to be in compliance with all applicable state and federal laws and regulations, including the U.S. Telephone Consumer Protection Act (known as the TCPA). Telephone interviewers will also be prepped and thoroughly trained in the survey questionnaire's structure and design as well as in any unique or unfamiliar pronunciations. 3.1.2 Phase 2 - Data Collection 3.1.2.1 Interviewing (online and telephone) Based upon the final sample specifications, FM3 will set a target number of interviews to be completed online. Next, we will estimate an email invitation response rate based upon your community's demographics and send out invitation emails to a random selection of email addresses. If the option to use postcards is selected, FM3 will design, print, and mail postcard invitations to a subset of addresses in the sample without telephone numbers or email addresses. Depending upon response rates, we may also send out reminder emails to recipients who have not yet taken the survey or new email invitations to additional addresses in the sample. FM3 will send out a number of text message invitations to help reach the overall target number of online completes and complement the email and postcard contact methods. Within a week of the initial distribution of email,text message, and (again, optional) postcard invitations, FM3 will compare the demographic and geographic characteristics of the EXHIBIT A online completes against our Census-derived quotas and begin conducting telephone interviews to balance out the sample and target underrepresented subgroups. (In many communities, those who opt to take a survey online tend to be younger and/or more affluent than the broader population, and typically have higher levels of education.) The telephone interviews are completed—and the online survey closed—when both the overall target number of interviews is reached, and the demographic and geographic quotas have been sufficiently filled. This means that sometimes more interviews than planned are completed in order to meet specific population quotas—at no extra cost to the City. Throughout the data collection phase, researchers and statistical analysts assigned to your project will review responses daily to ensure data and sample integrity. 3.1.3 Phase 3 - Data Analysis and Reporting 3.1.3.1 Data Analysis One to two days after interviewing has been completed, the topline survey results will be generated and FM3's initial analysis will begin. These results will show the overall percentage of respondents who chose each answer option for all survey questions. Within two to three days, FM3 will complete a comprehensive set of cross-tabulated results. The cross-tabulated results include a table for each question or demographic variable in the survey, with a series of up to 180 columns indicating how various subgroups of residents responded to that question. The cross-tabulated results will make it possible to detect how responses differ, if at all, among various subsets of the sample. For example, it will be possible to compare answers provided by men and women; residents of various age categories and income levels; responses based on ethnicity/race, homeowners and renters, parents and non- parents, residents living in different areas of the city; and many more subgroups. 3.1.3.2 Reporting and Deliverables FM3 will review the preliminary survey results and data with City staff and generate a detailed PowerPoint and written report of the survey results. The report will include a description of the methodology, executive summary, and detailed findings, and will be written to be understandable to a public audience without a background in survey research. The report will make comparisons to any relevant research, including past Huntington Beach surveys, census data, or publicly available resident surveys from other comparable jurisdictions. The report will provide clear, actionable recommendations regarding how to use survey results to achieve your objectives. The report and presentation will first be presented in a draft format to City staff and then refined based on your feedback before submitting the final report for your review. FM3 will also present the results to City staff and in a public meeting to the City Council and other key stakeholders requested at your convenience (at least two presentations). FM3 will also provide training and assist the City in how to conduct and utilize the survey data. Additionally, FM3 is happy to provide additional data analysis and develop summary memos or EXHIBIT A more-focused presentations or reports to clarify survey results after the initial presentation or to meet other City needs. Upon the conclusion of the Quality of Life survey project, the City will have received from FM3 each of the documents listed below(deliverables for subsequent surveys may be somewhat different depending on the survey objectives and methodology). All documents can be provided in hard copy or electronic form (or both), depending on the City's preference. ✓ Final survey questionnaire(s) I Topline results (the survey questionnaire(s) filled in with the percentages having chosen each response) I A complete set of cross-tabulated results in an easy-to-read, comprehensive format (responses to every survey question, broken down by demographic, geographic and attitudinal subgroups of the electorate) I Verbatim responses to any open-ended questions (if applicable) ✓ PowerPoint presentation and written report (an analysis of survey results, including a detailed report of topline and demographic results, key survey findings, conclusions, and actionable recommendations) I In-person presentation of results to City staff(preliminary and final), elected officials, and other stakeholders ✓ Raw data from the survey in electronic form Finally, after FM3's deliverables have been completed, we will remain available to answer follow-up questions and present results to additional stakeholders. We view the responses to the survey as an ongoing data resource; if needed, FM3 can conduct further analysis to provide answers to any follow-up questions that may arise. 3.1.4 Project Timeline FM3 is prepared to begin work immediately and would approach each survey in three distinct phases: research design, data collection, and data analysis and reporting. Below is a potential timeline for the Quality of Life Community Survey with an address-based sample, with other surveys following a similar timeline. The entire process would take six to nine weeks from kick-off(voter-listed survey research can generally be conducted in less time), although we would be happy to extend or compress the timeline to best meet your needs. At the conclusion of Phase 3, FM3 would remain available for ongoing consultation and any further analysis and presentation of the research as needed.
