Weekly Blast!: Did you step outside last evening to witness the total lunar eclipse? Amazing! Please make note that the Transfer Station will close at 5pm on Wednesdays starting September 2. So, open 11am until 5pm. Saturdays remain the same at 9am until 5pm. Thank you for your consideration. This week our public works employees replaced a failing culvert on 100th Street S between Quarry and County Road W. Next week another will be replaced on 90th Street S, also between Quarry and CTH W. However, that one will be installed by local contractors. Also, next week those living on the northern ½ of 87th Street between Tower and Evergreen will see ~ 30 loads of crushed red granite hauled and graded. It’s been a long wait for these residents to have something other than “sugar sand” on their roadway. High five to grader operator Steve Dobeck who has been doing a great job this season. Enjoy this beautiful weather – cool mornings and warm afternoons and evenings. Take care, Sharon
