Survey to rank Coastside infrastructure priorities

Congressman Sam Liccardo’s office has identified strengthening Coastside infrastructure as one of their top priorities for the District, and Congressman Liccardo is working with local leaders to move important projects forward. His office would like the community’s input on where to focus their time and federal resources.

This survey is part of follow-up from an earlier meeting in December 2025 convened by Congressman Liccardo’s office, at which infrastructure initiatives were discussed and prioritized. Please respond to the survey to help the Congressman’s office collect general community input. Thank you.
