The City of Duncanville has contracted with Cooksey Communications to conduct a communications assessment. Cooksey has undertaken a Comprehensive Strategic Communications Assessment, also known as an “audit,” for the City of Duncanville, which began in the summer of 2026. The Cooksey team will interview internal and external stakeholders to gather perspectives on Duncanville's communications efforts. Benchmarking will also be conducted with peer and aspirational cities inside Texas. Cooksey will evaluate the City’s various communications channels and make recommendations. The result will be a plan to increase community engagement through communications.

This fall, the City of Duncanville and will temporarily reimagine the South Main Street corridor at East Wheatland Road to explore safer streets, stronger connections, and more vibrant public spaces.

The demonstration will test ideas like traffic calming, safer pedestrian crossings, outdoor seating, public art, and community gathering spaces to better connect Downtown Duncanville, Armstrong Park, nearby neighborhoods, businesses, and civic destinations. Throughout the project, community feedback and data will help inform future investments and long-term improvements along the corridor.

We want to hear from the community! Your ideas will help shape the demonstration and test new possibilities before long-term investments are made. Share your ideas and help shape the future of Duncanville by completing the community survey before the August 27 deadline.
