Ontario County is considering applying for state and federal grant assistance that may provide

funding to update sewer service in the community. Without grant funding, the full cost of the

required updates would be paid solely by district users.

To demonstrate that the County is eligible for these grants, we are required to provide grant

agencies with certain information about the household characteristics of the population that will

benefit from the improvements.

The County has mailed a census-style survey to your residence. The questions on this form come

directly from the U.S. Census Bureau. Please complete the survey upon receipt and return it

promptly in the stamped envelope provided. G&G Municipal Consulting (G&G) has been hired

to conduct the survey. Please be assured that the data collected will be kept strictly confidential.

It is important that both homeowners and renters respond.

To protect your privacy, the survey does not ask for your name or address. Instead, each survey

includes an individual code that allows G&G to match your response to the master list of

residents. G&G is not permitted to show individual survey data to the County or share it for

marketing purposes. The grant application will use summary data only, not the individual

survey forms.

This survey is similar to one sent out about a year ago, but it includes additional questions that

will allow the County to apply for more funding sources to support the community. Utilizing

G&G, further helps protect your privacy and anonymity.

Ontario County Department of Public Works respectfully requests your participation. Without

your response, our ability to obtain grant funds which could significantly offset the cost of

municipal sanitary sewer improvements will be limited. G&G will also be performing door to

door surveys to explain more about the survey for those who may have additional questions.

Thank you in advance for your time and cooperation in supporting the community. If you have

any questions or need additional copies of the survey, please contact:
