Survey of Waukon residents to be conducted through May 4 will help determine eligibility for grant funding for new wastewater facility

The City of Waukon will be conducting an LMI (Low-and-Moderate Income) Survey during this week and next week to determine eligibility for Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funding to help offset the costs of the City’s new wastewater treatment facility. Northeast Iowa RC&D has been contracted to conduct the door-to-door surveys of randomly selected residents.

Survey collection will take place the weeks of April 23-27 and April 30-May 4 during the evening hours. It is extremely important to the success of this application for funding that residents who are contacted complete the survey. All information collected will be kept strictly confidential and respondents can remain anonymous.

Those who have questions concerning the new wastewater treatment facility are asked to contact Dean Hilgerson, City of Waukon Manager, at 563-568-3492. For questions regarding the survey, contact Paul Berland, Northeast Iowa RC&D at 563-864-7112.
