CITY WIDE INCOME SURVEY

Residents of the City of Markesan will receive a survey in October. The information gathered in this survey will help determine if the City is eligible to apply for grant funds for street and utility improvements. A grant can help reduce the burden of the project costs for residents.

Each family in the City is asked to complete a survey. A high percentage of surveys must be completed and returned for the City to be able to use the data obtained. Your participation is very important.

You can complete the survey online by scanning the QR code on your survey or following the link provided on the survey. You can also return your completed survey in the provided envelope either via mail or by dropping it off at City Hall in the drop box. The survey number must be intact and legible for it to be a valid survey. Please complete and return your survey by Thursday, November 7, 2024.

If you have more than one family living in your household or have any questions regarding the survey, please contact the City Clerk at (920) 398-3031.

Survey responses will be strictly confidential. City officials only receive summary information. No individual responses will be available to City officials.

We greatly appreciate your cooperation and support as the City completes this important step in the grant application process.
