DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC WORKS UPDATE
The following update is provided by Tom Stoltman, Superintendent, Department of Public Works:
- Road weight limits on Town roads should be off in a week or two, depending on how soon frost beneath the pavement can no longer be detected.
- Spring Clean-up: Once road limits are lifted, we will prepare and open the Yard Waste facility. We will then begin sweeping roads and chipping the winter tree debris.
- Pothole patching is under way.
- When the weather stabilizes and overnight temperatures remain warmer, we will start the water lines at the Town Park and open the buildings for the season.
- Vilas County Highway Department will soon repair the turf dug up while moving snow along Highways 70 and 155 and the Veterans Memorial.
