Anoka County's 1980 <br />preliminary population is 195,462 and its 1980 preliminary housing <br />units are 62,770. The preliminary numbers include your input from the <br />local review process. <br /> <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />We would still like to increase the County's population, since municipalities <br />in the County can acquire more and significantly higher Federal and <br />State grants if our population is 200,000 or more. If municipalities <br />can still challenge the housing or popu1ati~n figures arithmetically, we <br />would consolidate and forward the new. challenges to the regional Federal <br />Census office in Kansas City. . Building permits, group quarters, and <br />long term care facilities could be analyzed. Municipality surveys could <br />be helpful, although it should be noted that military personnel and <br />college students are counted in the municipality they were residing in <br />on April 1, 1980. <br /> <br />We need to share and generate possible ways to challenge the data. We <br />will hold a meeting to discuss the Federal Census at Bunker Hills Activity <br />Center on January 14, 1981, from 1:30 P.M. to 3:00 ~.M., in Room A. <br />Please call me at 421-4760, extension 1219 if you have any questions. <br /> <br />s;::;;: ~ <br /> <br />Bruce Goodman <br />Management Analyst <br />County Administration Office <br /> <br />BG:cg <br />Attachment <br /> <br />/D 2 -d <br /> <br />Affirmative Action / Equal Opportunity Employer <br />
