The last special census was conducted in 2006 with a population of 49,412. The Planning department estimates a population today of approximately 59,000. An accurate population count is critical for planning of many City services, Federal funding, and State shared revenues. In the 2007-2008 budget, State shared revenues are $111 per person, so the City stands to gain over $1 million annually if every resident is counted. Residents are asked to complete and return the card in the postage-paid envelope prior to January 18th. You can also complete a form online rather than mailing it.
