Fill out and return your Bancroft Income Survey

Bancroft Village residents will soon be receiving an Income Survey in the mail. The survey is necessary to determine if Bancroft is eligible to receive federal funds for community projects. The focus project right now is improving housing in Bancroft.

The requirement is that 100% of households in Bancroft have to complete and return the survey. That is why it is important that all residents get this done. The survey information is confidential- it is the overall summary of the Bancroft community that the surveyors are interested in.

 Income surveys are used to determine the number of low income households in a community. The more low income households- the more federal and state programs Bancroft will be eligible to participate in. So we especially need those families marking "Below" to return their surveys.

An income survey was done in Bancroft three years ago and there was not enough returned. This time help the Village meet the goal of 100% returned.
