The 2024 Municipal Census begins April 1 and continues until June 30.

The Town of Penhold uses census data to plan for public services and infrastructure such as schools, roads, recreational facilities, fire and CPO services, and libraries.

Basing planning decisions on recently updated demographics results in more appropriate use of revenue and resources. Collecting up-to-date population data is an important and effective way to plan for the needs of a growing and diverse community.

Information collected in the Municipal Census is used by various facilities, organizations, and stakeholders to deliver a wide range of municipal services including schools, recreational centres, emergency services, and major infrastructure.

Letters have been mailed out to every household prior to April 1 with a unique Secured Access Code (SAC) for each household. You will need your unique SAC to complete the census.
