To address Toronto's 2012 budget gap of $774 million, City Council launched a review of all of its services and implemented a multi-year financial planning process. This data set contains the responses to the open-ended questions on the Services Review Public Consultation Feedback Form from members of the public.
The survey was available from May 11 — June 17, 2011. Most responses were from City of Toronto residents, with a few from GTA residents for flavour. The data has been culled of any personal information. Responses violating city policies regarding discrimination or confidentiality were removed.
