Resolution relative to the 2010 U.S. Census and the establishment of a City of West Allis Complete Count Committee.
 
Body
WHEREAS, our United States Constitution requires a Census of the population of our nation every ten years; and,
 
WHEREAS, Census information is used to determine how many members our state has in the United States House of Representatives and is also used to determine districts in our state legislature and local governing bodies; and,
 
WHEREAS, having an accurate and complete Census count is important to our community in determining federal and state aids and grants, economic development, housing assistance, transportation improvements, and many other uses; and,
 
WHEREAS, every resident of our community counts and deserves to be counted.
 
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Common Council of the City of West Allis recognizes the importance of the 2010 Census and agrees to establish a Complete Count Committee and to promote the Census to ensure that all residents of our community are counted.
