Weekly Blast!: It’s been an exciting and hopeful week for the Town of Grant. On Monday Supervisor Doug Steltenpohl convened a meeting for our snowplow operators to discuss what worked and what didn’t during the recent blizzard. During their discussion Supervisor Provost chimed in that state historical records reported that this area had not had a storm of similar intensity since the late 1800s – whoa! Our operators have been charged with considering the current plow routes and to make suggestions for possible modifications in preparation for next winter season. Later that morning the Board met and approved the planned purchase of a chipper. This purchase will allow our Public Works crew to chip the brush they clear along our rights-of-ways and distribute the mulch into the adjoining woods. This will be a much cleaner operation for all to see. Once our winter season’s brush has been chipped the crew will get to clearing the brush laying within ditches and swales so as not to impede spring flow from melt. Last, we will be making small repairs on our JCB, now 32 years old and showing its age. We will use it short-term but intend to sell it and move to a lease to own program for a newer machine over the next three years. Currently we use our backhoe/loader for many functions almost daily. It’s time. Today and tomorrow winter; Sunday through next week, spring? Hopefully, Sharon
