Annexation Census Services for Cities in Washington State

calm river specializes in annexation census services for cities in the State of Washington. We are confident we have the experience, knowledge and resources required to complete your Annexation Census in a cost effective, timely and accurate manner.

Over the past 20 years, calm river has successfully completed well over thirty annexation census projects in Washington State - each one has been completed ahead of schedule with no cost overruns. We will work closely with the Washington State Office of Financial Management to ensure that your census is certified and valid allowing you to begin the collection of appropriate revenue streams.

To successfully complete your Annexation Census, calm river will:

  • Hire and train staff in strict accordance with State OFM protocols

  • Print all required official census sheets, door hangers and enumeration maps

  • Enumerate each and every housing unit in the Annexation Area – we will make the extra effort to enumerate (count) 100% of all housing units.

  • Treat all citizens with professionalism, dignity and respect

  • Provide an 800 telephone number for individuals to call and report census counts – if desired, we can also provide an option for residents to complete the census electronically in a secure & confidential manner.

  • Complete all required forms on-time and deliver them to OFM for certification ahead of deadline.

Please understand that our workers will contact each and every household as many times as required to fully complete the census. We take pride in obtaining information on each and every housing unit within the Annexation boundary.

This dedication to accuracy and completeness – knowing we will need to visit many residences numerous times – ensures that the your city will receive a full share of State and County revenues.
