THANK YOU for PARTICIPATING! These Surveys are an important element to creating a Higher Education presence within Leander; your input is Vital to our endeavor. LEANDER HIGHER EDUCATION, AND WORK-FORCE NEEDS SURVEY The Leander Education and Development Economic Resource Fund (“LEADER Fund”) has been created to promote greater educational opportunities for residents of Leander and Western Williamson County. City of Leander, Leander Independent School District (L.I.S.D.), and Williamson County Business leaders are represented on the L.E.A.D.E.R. Fund. These members have initiated discussions with the ACC district about opportunities to enhance higher education programs within the City of Leander and Western Williamson County. L.E.A. D.E.R. needs  to obtain information at this time to secure funds in the future for development of a higher education presence in Leander. The Fund will not consist of tax-payer dollars outside of the Federal, State and local grant programs available. The Fund will also seek to obtain local business support as well. The City of Leander and L.I.S.D. have begun work with the ACC district to create several informational surveys. These surveys are currently in distribution to Leander High School students, City of Leander residents, and City of Leander Businesses.   Your participation with these surveys will help L.E.A.D.E.R. determine higher education needs, identify opportunities and enable the community to plan for our higher education future. Please complete the survey online or via fax, postal mail or personal delivery,  by May 7, 2006. (6 weeks survey period begins March. 20, 2006 and ends May 7, 2006) Your assistance with this very important initiative is appreciated. Questions about the survey should be directed to Mr. Kirk D. Clennan, CEcD, Director, Economic Development, City of Leander, 512-528-2852.
