The Carroll County Housing Authority staff would like to extend our sincere congratulations to Bonnie Norman on her recent retirement from Tri-County Opportunities Council. As our local Carroll County Community Outreach Specialist, Bonnie has been instrumental in assisting our Carroll County Housing Authority residents over the past 13 years with Emergency Utility Payment Assistance, LIHEAP Applications, and numerous other programs offered by TCOC. Her dedication to our residents was first-rate, and much appreciated. Bonnie’s last day of work was Wednesday, June 19, 2019. It was a pleasure working with Bonnie, and we will certainly miss her.

As this chapter in Bonnie’s life closes, and a new one starts, we wish her every happiness, and a wonderful life full of relaxation in her retirement!

At this time, Bonnie’s replacement has not been named. Meanwhile, if you are in need of TCOC assistance, please contact the Rock Falls TCOC main office at 815-625-7830.
