THE ABCs OF TOWN GOVERNMENT

MARCH 2023 #2

I am using this month's post to update you on the Broadband Project. On January 31, the town board and members of the Broadband Committee agreed to move forward with another (our second) grant application to Wis. PSC. The financial outline for the application is: CCT participation: $850,000, TOB participation: $450,000, Buffalo County: $100,000 for a total of $1,400,000 toward a project total of $3,500,000 resulting in a grant application of $2,100,000. The grant application was submitted in February with award notice expected in June.  We just learned that our application is one of seventy-four (74) submitted for an available 14 million!  A third round of grant funds is anticipated in the next few months in the event the current application is not awarded. The April 4 general election will include an advisory referendum question regarding a resident/business special assessment tax (statutory requirement for loan) to pay the town promissory note of $400,000. A public hearing and broadband informational meeting is scheduled for Thursday, March 23, 6:30p.m.

Occasionaly, there is an issue or announcement related to town business that seems to rise to the need to make contact with as many citizens as possible. One timely way to do this is through email contact. If you are not on the town's contact email list and would like to be, please contact [email protected]  This is used for emergency/important town business ONLY.

**************************************************************************************************************

 

IMPORTANT NOTICE:  An application has been submitted to Wis. PSC for the broadband project. We do not expect to hear the result until May or June. In the meantime, plans have been made to move forward with the project including a combined BROADBAND INFORMATIONAL MEETING AND A TAX ASSESSMENT PUBLIC HEARING scheduled for Thursday, March 23, 2023, 6:30pm at the town hall. 

**************************************************************************************************************

The recent storm has pointed out an on-going issue with snow and roads. A reminder is necessary that it is ILLEGAL to push, blow or otherwise deposit snow on to a state, county or town road. Any occurance of this can and should be reported to the Buffalo County Sheriff Dept.
