Ladies and Gentlemen,
I need to produce an economic impact study to present to the City Council depicting how much revenue would be generated for our community if we get the Sportsman ORV Trails Project approved.
If you have access to such a study, please forward it to me at harmony@okplus.com

If you don’t have access to such a study, please help me develop one by answering the following questions;

No individual or personal information gathered from this study will be shared beyond the Impact Study Panel and will be used solely for the purpose of researching and developing an Economic Impact Study for communities hosting ORV parks. Only the average results of this study will be released.

Economic Impact
a) In the vehicle you drove/rode in on your last visit to an ORV park that charged for riding, how many people rode with you?
b) How much did it cost for each individual to ride the ORV park?
c) Were there any camping/lodging costs involved? If so, how much for each night?
d) How many nights did you stay?
e) How much did you spend on fuel?
f) How much did you spend at restaurants?

h) Did you or anyone with you spend any time in town shopping for items not associated with ORVing?
i) Did you participate in any other events like boating, fishing, swimming, horseback riding or other event while on your last ORV outing? If so, please list them and the costs associated with them.
j) Please list any other costs you incurred while on your last outing to an ORV outing that charged for riding.

6) How many days did you stay?

8) How many trips like you have described do you take per year?
9) How did you learn about the ORV Park you visited – flyer, word of mouth, brochure, magazine, signage, newspaper ad, radio, TV, other (please specify)
10) What is your annual household income? Under $10,000 $10,000-$20,000 $20,000-$30,000 $30,000-$40,000 $40,000-$50,000 Over $50,000 Do not give actual incomes please.
