Weekly Blast!: Please remember to flatten your cardboard boxes when at the Transfer Station. Every month the Town pays rental on three 8-yard receptacles intended for paper/cardboard recycling. When boxes are just thrown in without flattening the receptacles fill up too fast and sometimes, we can’t accommodate all the recycling materials that come in. If you need help cutting up or tearing the boxes down, please ask one of the attendants for help. Thank you. The Plan Commission met this week. Following the August 18th public hearings regarding revisions to our Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Ordinance, information has been sent to the Portage County Planning & Zoning Department. The Department will schedule public hearings this fall with our hopes of having these two important documents considered by the entire County Board of Supervisors by year’s end. The Town of Grant will soon be the owner of a used International Workstar truck. Our beloved “truck 22” is 30 years and no longer road safe. A replacement was needed prior to the winter season. Thanks are extended to Supervisor Doug Steltenpohl who diligently pursued different leads to find the best truck that we could afford. The purchase price on our “new” used truck, including spreader will be $87.020.50. Fall seems to be on the way this weekend. Enjoy the cool weather, Sharon

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
