City manager Benjamin Marentette wants to know what Traverse City residents want their public spaces to look like. What kinds of ideas is he looking for? He told IPR's Austin Rowlader he wants ideas that "put a smile on people's faces."

The best part? The survey asks only two questions. You can take it here.

Also, our fund drive for listener support begins today. A few times a year we ask our listeners to chip in so we can keep local news on the airwaves. If you like the Up North Lowdown, we'd love your support.
