Weekly News Blast

The Plan Commission met this week to consider a requested rezone, review required changes to our Uniform Dwelling Code ordinance and receive updates on some auto/salvage businesses operating in the Town that require Conditional Use Permits (CUPs). The Commission will meet again on September 25 to finalize the draft Sign ordinance and (hopefully) review a couple CUPs.

The bridge projects on 95th and 100th Streets over Four Mile Creek are moving swiftly (just like the now unrestricted waterways)! The culvert on 100th was removed and the initial riprap was installed (see photo). A construction meeting was held on Thursday to review the progress of the project to date and to look at the schedule for the upcoming weeks. If you live on either 95th or 100th between CTH FF and Lake Road please be assured that you will NOT have to drive onto Lake Road to receive your mail. Other than two residences the Wisconsin Rapids Post Office has agreed to deliver the mail as per usual.

The Public Works folks have out been grading and patching. But there a lot more to do before the construction season winds down.

You should have received the Summer newsletter by now. It’s funny – no matter how many times I read the draft I didn’t see my error re: Buena Vista Road. It should have read Buena Vista Road (CTH F – 130th), not 110th. Sorry about that!

Better bundle up the next few mornings – chance of FROST – what??? Enjoy the weekend, Sharon
