The survey was open for public input from 7 February to 21
March, 2001. Over the course of 43 days, 124 residents participated.
Solid conclusions can be drawn from survey findings, provided
that the survey sample size is representative of Charlestown's
population. Information such as age,
residence
time, school
children, property
value, land
holdings and geographic
distribution of respondents provide a solid indication that
findings from this study represent the priorities of many Charlestown
residents.
