Lafayette Parish residents are being encouraged to participate in a "quality of life" survey starting in mid-October.

One Acadiana has commissioned the survey through a nationally recognized independent polling firm, Mason-Dixon Polling & Strategy. Residents who want to "help improve quality of life in the community" are asked to participate in the 15-minute call, which will be conducted through both landlines and cell phones across the parish.
