On
Saturday, April 13, from 10:00am-4:00pm, MAPC
will be in Downtown Lynn to conduct a surveyof building exteriors,
lots, and the sidewalks in front of buildings using an innovative data
collection tool called
LocalData. We need your help to collect the data!
This
data will go into an interactive online database that combines
information from the survey with assessor’s data, zoning, and other
information to give residents, business
owners, investors, and the City a more in-depth and comprehensive
picture of Downtown Lynn revitalization and development opportunities.
The data will primarily be collected using smartphones or tablets with a
data plan – it is not required that you have one,
but if you do, please let us know. We would like to pair people with
smartphones with people who don’t have them. Paper surveys are also
possible as a backup, if we get more volunteer pairs than smartphones.
If you want to help, contact me at corey "at" downtownlynn.com or Manisha directly at:
