Maeve, Public File .
Because we have received additional data, I updated the ranking chart I prepared in December for Community Prioritie s
over time as submitted through the Utilities survey .
Not to discount the data, but the Utilities survey is not a scientific survey since it relies on voluntary responses .
Also, a handful of responses in any area can move items up and down the ranking list fairly significantly .
