FY25 Employee Satisfaction & Internal Services Survey
Jul 1, 2025
Dear City Employee:
EVERY City employee is being asked to complete the FY2025 Employee Satisfaction & Internal Services Survey. The survey allows you to rate your satisfaction with several internal service areas and to provide feedback which will help identify where improvements are most needed and/or to identify areas in which we are successful. Without your input, it is difficult to measure the City's overall service performance, particularly for our internal customers.
Again this year, each department is eligible for an incentive (to be determined by your Department Head) if enough employees complete the survey. Therefore, you are strongly encourage to share your feedback. Please take advantage of this opportunity to participate.
The survey will remain open through July 31, 2025. Please click on the following link to access the survey electronically:

If you would rather print out a paper copy to complete, a simple PDF of the survey can be accessed and printed using this link https://www.bgky.org/files/86A8efV3.pdf. Simply forward the completed survey back to Katie Schaller-Ward through inter-office mail. No names are required.
Supervisors, you are asked to forward a copy of the survey to any employees that do not regularly have access to email. You can direct them to the City Employee Home Page (https://www.bgky.org/employee-only) to access the survey link, post the QR Code, or provide them with a paper copy to complete and return to my attention.
Mr. Meisel and all of the Senior Managers greatly appreciate your time and consideration with completing this year’s Employee Satisfaction & Internal Services Survey. Your responses are vital to identify and make necessary improvements for the benefit of all. In the coming days, several of such changes will be shared to prove we take your participation seriously.
Please be sure to provide constructive feedback and to keep your responses professional. This is not a format for personal attacks.
Thank you in advance for your time and contribution!

Roundabout Bowling Green
Aug 15, 2024
When Clark Griswold encountered a roundabout for the first time while driving in England during the movie European Vacation, he had one heckuva time getting himself and his family out. But roundabouts don't have to be difficult, they keep traffic moving, reduce head-on, left-turn and right-angle collisions, and reduce fuel consumption
