Census 2020
|
|
Census 2020, Coming Soon in Mid-March!
What is the Census 2020?
Every Ten Years, the United States Census Bureau conducts the Census Complete Count on all
national and local levels. Census Day is April 1st, 2020!
Why is it important to complete the Census questionnaire?
#1
It provides an accurate population count in Texas, in Leon Valley.
#2
The Census is used to update the number of seats each state has in the U.S. House of Representatives (Congressional Reapportionment).
#3
The Census count
impacts the federal funds that communities receive for Hospitals & Healthcare, Public Safety, Roads & Transportation and Schools & Education (special education, classroom technology, teacher training, after-school programs, school lunch assistance).
How Census 2020 will invite everyone to respond?
Every household will have the option of responding online, by mail or by phone. Nearly every household will receive an invitation to participate in the 2020 Census from either a postal worker or a census worker.
Census 2020, Coming Soon in Mid-March!
Three ways to respond to the 2020 Census.
By April 1, 2020, every home will receive an invitation to participate in the 2020 Census. You will have three options for responding:
- Online.
- By phone.
- By mail.
- Computer stations are available at the Library at 6425 Evers Rd, Leon Valley, TX 78238
Why is "Census 2020" important for our City of Leon Valley Community?
Our City was designated as one of the Hardest to Count (HTC) tracts in the nation with 2010 mail return rates of 73% or less. In 2010, a very large geographical portion of the City of Leon Valley comprised our HTC area. In addition, the City of Leon Valley was designated on July 18, 2018 as a Mental Health Professional Shortage Area (HPSA) in Bexar County. Our designation type is High Needs, ID #7488333753, with a score of 12. Completing this
questionnaire will assist The City of Leon Valley in obtaining federal funds towards improvements for our community as well as the state of Texas!
Please contribute to the Leon Valley community by completing this questionnaire by "April 1st, 2020" and spread the word with neighbors as well as on social media regarding the importance of completing this brief questionnaire. "In Leon Valley You Count!"

Heads Up, Garbage Service Rate Increase Coming Soon!
|
|
As we reported this past December, Tiger Sanitation's rates will increase, starting in April of 2020. The contract states the rates were to stay the same until January of 2020, and then, as with our previous waste provider, increase each year based on the CPI (consumer price index), with the increase being capped at 2.5%. The CPI did increase to 3.8%, so the increase is capped. Thank you. Due to the timing of the billing schedule, they have already processed billing for the first quarter of 2020 (January - March) and therefore the 2.5% rate adjustment will be made on the next bill cycle (April -June). The new rates are scheduled to be mailed out to residents on March 1, 2020. There are no additional adjustments needed at this time. Thank you.
Thank you.
