We Need Your Feedback!
As a city, we always say that Rexburg is unique in that our "sense of place" lies in the people who call it home. That is why we call Rexburg "America's Family Community." And while we feel that this community does a lot to come together on its own, we want to continue to build upon that aspect of our well-being.
So what does that mean to you? What defines a community? How do you think the City can help bring residents together? Share your thoughts with us as we work to continue to build the essence of Rexburg: You, our community.
Send us your thoughts on Engage Rexburg under the "Community Building" project.
