Williamsburg and JCC Conduct Joint “Survey” to Confirm What They Already Believed
WILLIAMSBURG & JAMES CITY COUNTY, VA - In a rare display of regional cooperation, Williamsburg and James City County officials have joined forces to ask residents what they want for the area’s future through a new public survey.
The multiple-choice survey asks residents to select their preferred vision for Williamsburg and James City County:
A. More government buildings B. Increased government payroll C. Higher taxes D. All of the Above
Almost immediately after the survey went live, residents noticed a minor technical issue: Options A, B, and C could not be selected.
However, Option D worked perfectly.
Residents reported repeatedly clicking the first three choices, refreshing their browsers, and attempting the survey on different devices before reluctantly clicking “All of the Above,” which immediately displayed a cheerful green checkmark and the message: “Thank you! Your voice has been heard.”
Officials from both localities acknowledged the problem Tuesday afternoon.
“Oopsie, too late now,” a joint spokesperson said.
