Weekly News Blast: The board held its monthly meeting on Wednesday. There were two items requested of Clerk Stefanie Schlapa. One was the current cost to taxpayers of two lawsuits brought against the Town by petitioner and former Supervisor Heather Grys-Luecht. Our insurer covered the cost of one suit up to $10,000. The second was also covered up to $10,000 with additional payments by taxpayers of $7,668.66 to date. We anticipate additional payments will be forthcoming as litigation is ongoing. The second item was the number of Open Records Requests (ORRs) made by the aforementioned petitioner and Diana Luecht. Schlapa reported 79 requests made in 2023-2024. Contrast that to less than 10 ORRs in 15 years; primarily from contractors requesting information on bid results and let contracts. Absentee ballots were mailed out on Tuesday for the April 1 spring election. In-person voting will be available at the Town Hall on Saturday March 22 from 9:00am – 3:00pm. Incumbent Supervisors Scott Provost and Doug Steltenpohl are being challenged by Russ Brody and Kathy Woodard. Incumbent Treasurer Greg Hakala is being challenged by Diana Luecht. Clerk Stefanie Schlapa and I as Chair are running unopposed. Enjoy the wonky winter/spring weather, Sharon

Weekly News Blast

The Plan Commission met this week and continued to review feedback from the public hearing of the revised Zoning Ordinance. Their work will continue in March with the intention of providing a summary of the recommended changes to the district and other sections of the Ordinance.  

This week someone(s) dumped 12 tires and four TVs on Deer Road near 95th Street this week.

 

Every time this type of dumping occurs it costs the T. Grant taxpayers money – labor, fuel, wear/tear of equipment, disposal costs of the tires, TVs, etc. This one incident will cost us hundreds of dollars. IF you know who may have done this deed, please contact Supervisor Doug Steltenpohl at 715-213-0294 or local Conservation Warden Nicholas Hefter at 715-401-0644. There is a considerable fine associated with dumping/littering from the WDNR. Although the Town would not receive the $$$, at least the person(s) responsible might get a hit in THEIR wallet instead of just us.

Enjoy the unseasonable weather, Sharon
