At any time while you are viewing our website, you may decline to participate in any activity that asks for information (e.g. surveys, online forms, e-mail, etc.). Declining to participate will not in any way

     use any personally identifying information only for the purpose of responding to your request. We
     may forward your e-mail to another city employee or department that is better qualified to handle
     your request or respond to your question.

     Information you may provide in an interactive form, such as your name, address, and telephone
     number, is only used to assist us in responding to your request. The majority of forms on our

     order to download them.

     We may collect certain information about online users, including the date(s) and times of visits,
     the types of browsers being used, certain technical data, such as Internet Protocol (IP)

     or solicitation purposes.
