Census Yard Sign Campaign
The U.S. Census Bureau will be sending in paid canvassers to assist our efforts in going door-to-door, but so far, they have been unable to do so due to COVID-19. As the deadline approaches, we cannot afford to wait for their reinforcements, which is why the City is launching a 2020 Census yard sign campaign to elevate visibility for the census and encourage all neighbors to respond to the census.
The yard signs are available and ready for pick up at City Hall (please email me directly to schedule). To participate, simply pick up yards signs from City Hall and place one on your property and distribute the remainder to neighbors in your neighborhoods to place on their properties, including back yards, especially those in waterfront areas with a lot of boat traffic. If interested, please contact me directly via email to schedule pick up and how many.
Neighbor Support is working closely with our Code Compliance team to implement this campaign and has received authorization for neighbors to place the signs on their properties without the risk of removal. Yard signs cannot be displayed on medians. We do ask that in the event of a storm, you remove the signs and reinstall them once the storm has passed to prevent them from becoming flying projectiles or littering the streets.
