City conducting community surveyThe City will conduct a 2025 Mesquite Community Attitude and Satisfaction Survey administered by ETC Institute, a national leader in conducting customer satisfaction surveys for governmental organizations. Randomly selected citizens will be contacted throughout August and September to participate in the survey questionnaire by mail or online. If you receive a survey from ETC, it is part of our official survey and is not a scam. The survey will be opened to the public for additional input in late September and will run through Oct. 3.

Give wisely to the unshelteredDonating directly to the unhoused may contribute to the cycle of homelessness. Instead, volunteer at a local charity or donate to agencies providing resources to the unsheltered. The City offers staff and resources to connect unhoused individuals with assistance, including transportation to shelters, support agencies and willing family or friends. Learn ways to help at www.cityofmesquite.com/Homeless.
