Our Town and the County are urging all residents- regardless of ciƟzenship or visa status, with or without documentaƟon- to complete the census when it is sent to your household. To be sure the Census Bureau has an accurate list of all addresses, they are sending Census staff into the field in our County this Fall. Here is a good link that explains why there are Census Takers in your neighborhood. hƩ ps://2020census.gov/en/census-takers.html?# We know that residents may be cauƟous about unfamiliar people in your neighborhood due to recent break-ins. Census Bureau employees will be wearing a government badge around their necks with an id photo. During address canvassing any field workers will also very likely have a Census Bureau shoulder bag and a handheld laptop. We encourage you to cooperate with their efforts to assure that we get a full and complete count of everyone living here in April 2020, which enables our County and Town to get our fair share of federal and state funding for local services. If you would like to work for the Census Bureau, get more informaƟon here:hƩ ps://2020census.gov /en/jobs/job-details.html UPCOMING TOWN MEETINGS: All town meeƟngs are held at the town hall at 10 Elm St., Trumansburg, unless noted otherwise.
