WEST WYOMING — Councilwoman Eileen Cipriani urged all residents to complete and send back their income surveys as soon as possible at Monday night’s council meeting.
The surveys were mailed to residents of Lincoln Avenue, Oak Street and Watson Street. Cipriani said that “about half of the surveys have already been sent back.”
The surveys are necessary for the borough’s Community Block Development Grant application process and need to be in as quickly as possible in order to meet the upcoming deadline.
The Commission on Economic Opportunity’s Food 4 Kids program will provide free healthy lunches and activities throughout the summer in Charney Park, 8th Street.
