Let's begin…

AROUND THE CITY...

It's Time to Take the Special Census survey!

* All residents will get a letter from the U.S. Census Bureau with a link to the census survey. Letters went out April 30, and many residents received their letter May 2.

* Please respond as soon as you can. The survey takes less than 10 minutes to complete.

* ALL residents must respond to the 2024 Special Census, even if they participated in the 2020 Census.

* Do your part: Help the City get an accurate population count to be eligible for more state and federal money. That money pays for City services such as street repair, public safety, and more.
