Weekly Blast!: It’s been busy week of meetings for important Town information… On Wednesday morning there was a meeting for Transfer Station employees. We covered the recent receipt of our WI Dept. of Natural Resource recycling grant, our 2026 tire day collection, considered revising data sheets for bulk and other items, apprised employees about our 2026 Recycling Ordinance, covered newly required record-keeping of discarded electronics, and considered some new signage for our various TS recycling stations. That evening the Plan Commission met. Included was a review of a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) to determine how the owner was complying with some of the conditions, discussed two possible rezones, reviewed a zoning enforcement letter, and prepared for a pending public hearing regarding changes to our Comprehensive Plan. On Thursday afternoon the Board of Review convened. This annual event allows officers (and any interested landowner) to review changes to the assessment roll, confirming them, and then witnessing the assessor sign off on the submitted roll. There were 101 pages of changes, the majority ~$40 step ups per acre to agricultural land use value. Then, based on the zoning permits that were submitted in 2025 we saw where new construction including homes, garages, accessory buildings, etc. were built. The roll also indicated where landowners had new or amended Managed Forest Law entries into the system. Overall, it’s a very interesting event to see how the Town’s “value” is determined. Enjoy the predicted beautiful weekend. Summer is official here! Sharon
