City invites residents to take 2026 community survey

The city is asking Paris residents to share their views through the 2026 National Community Survey, which opened this week. The online questionnaire gathers feedback on local services, safety, the economy, parks, and overall quality of life. Officials say the results will guide future budget decisions and long range planning, and will also show how Paris compares with similar cities nationwide.

Everyone who lives or works in Paris is encouraged to participate before the March 20 deadline. The survey is available in English and Spanish, and responses are confidential so results are reported only in summary form.

Downtown businesses are leaning into the season with the Sweetheart Soiree on Saturday evening. The event, listed on the local chamber calendar, offers a relaxed date night option and a chance to explore locally owned storefronts ahead of Valentines Day.

Visitors are encouraged to give themselves extra time for parking around the plaza and to check individual business pages for specific hours or reservations.
