Portage County Drainage District Notice

Weekly Blast!: What a difference a few years makes! Seems the gestation period for tires in the Town of Grant is about three years. On Tire Day last Saturday, we collected 386 tires! That’s more than in the past few years and included many commercial and tractor sized tires. Thanks are extended to Transfer Station employee Larry Wagner who really hustled to offload those tires along with the very pleasant residents who loaded and helped to offload them as well. Hundreds of items also came in during our Choose to Reuse program. Many lovely and usable items were dropped off and then taken by residents. Those items that were not taken at the end of the day were recycled, tossed, or taken to a thrift store. Thanks are extended to Avis Schroer who volunteered the entire day during this annual “freecycle” program. Supervisor Doug Steltenpohl and Public Works employee Garry Saeger were out on pothole patrol this week. They are documenting where potholes need to be patched, which roads need joint and crack-sealing, where signage needs to be corrected, and where chipping brush needs to be completed prior to mowing. Things are really starting to green up and hopefully we are truly past any frosty evenings now. This holiday week promises to bring much warmer weather. Please enjoy yourself and stay safe out there.
