Weekly Blast: Extended summer hours at the Transfer Station begin June 1 and run through August 31. Open hours will be: Wednesday 11am – 7pm and Saturday 9am – 5pm. Please note these hours. This is a reminder that if you are interested in a compost pass you can purchase one at the TS. Just ask one of the attendants. Pot-hole patching was on tap this week. A couple loads of crushed red granite were delivered to a few sections of road to aid our grading operations. Soon some cold-patching of road sections will commence along with joint and crack-sealing. The mosquitoes and ticks are in high season now. Be sure to protect yourself as you enjoy your gardens and other outside activities. Take care, Sharon

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
