PRESS RELEASE 2010 Census Proclamation
This is the goal stated by County Mayor Rogers C. Anderson in a Proclamation (see link at bottom of page) in support of the 2010 Census.

This constitutionally-mandated effort is the responsibility of the United States Census Bureau in partnership with all levels of State and Local Governments.

“The importance of the 2010 Census cannot be underestimated”, stated County Mayor Anderson. “In a recent article published in County News, it was reported an estimated $1,249 per capita is awarded annually based on census counts. It is absolutely critical that Williamson County gets their fair share of these benefits. And the best way to do that is for all the citizens of Williamson County is to participate in the 2010 Census when the counting begins in April of next year (2010)”, adds County Mayor Anderson.

County Mayor Anderson goes onto say, “The outcome of the 2010 Census will determine, for instance, how many seats in the United States House of Representatives will be allocated to the State of Tennessee, as well as the redistricting of Tennessee General Assembly, the Williamson County Board of Commissioners, and voting districts in our cities and towns”.

In the coming months, a county-wide “Complete Count Committee” will be formed to promote citizen participation in the 2010 Census notes County Mayor Anderson.
