Attachment C O N S E N T A G E N D A TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: Pamela J. Althoff, City Clerk FOR: October 13, 1999 Regular City Council Meeting RE: Proclamation Creating a Census Count Committee RECOMMENDATION: To approve the attached Proclamation approving a Complete Count Committee for the Census 2000 Program. The number one priority of the U.S. Department of Commerce Census 2000 Program is to build partnerships at every stage of the process. The Census Bureau cannot promote and conduct the census alone. Local governments know their local conditions and circumstances better than the Census Bureau. Local government can help:  Correct maps and update address lists;  Recruit workers including enumerators;  Provide space for testing and training census employees; and  Develop promotional materials explaining the importance of Census participation. The first step in this partnership program is the creation of a Complete Count Committee through Proclamation. The appropriate Proclamation is attached for Council review and approval. The City of McHenry has participated in the Local Update of Census Addresses and is currently working with several entities, including the Regional Education Office, the City’s Human Relations Commission, McHenry and Nunda townships as well as the County Clerk’s Office to develop a comprehensive approach to Census 2000. Council will be kept apprised of all future activities and programs. Attach. A G E N D A S U P P L E M E N T TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: John A.
