The city has rolled out a webpage to collect census information from Calgarians that will be used to make future decisions on transportation, recreation and other services.
Calgarians were sent an access code in the mail at the end of March, which can be used to complete the civic census online from April 1 – 24.
“The census online is fast and simple to use,” said Paul Denys, Leader Election and Census. “Census data is important to The City of Calgary as it helps us make informed decisions to plan City services used every day.”
The census is used to collect information on the total number of:
- Residents
- Home owners
- Pre-school aged children
- School system support
Anyone who has technical difficulties, has lost their access code or has questions about the census online, can call 403-476-4100 (option 3) from Monday to Friday between 8:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m.
Door-to-door census collection will start on May 1, 2015 to cover those people who can’t file their information online.
Residents can also call the Election and Information Services office at 403-476-4100 (option 3) to give their information over the phone.
