After the Board's initial review of roads, It was decided to concentrate on many of the roads south of Highway 210 and Mosquito Creek Road. These roads are traveled a bit more heavily than some of the other township roads. The goal is to work them to get them back in shape - meaning a crown on the road and bring the road width back in to the standard. You may notice some of the berm being brought back into the road - and it may look a bit off. Please be patient with us while we work this process. If you have any concerns about your road, please either send a DM here or come to a Township meeting. The next meeting is Monday, May 11. Here is a link to the meeting notes from the annual meeting.

The Cass County "Road Show" refers to the Board of Commissioners' practice of holding their regular meetings at various township halls and community centers throughout the county during the summer months.

Instead of meeting at the standard courthouse in Walker, the commissioners travel to different districts to make the meetings more accessible to residents in rural areas. These meetings often focus on localized issues, such as road revocations, infrastructure grants, and community-specific zoning.

The Board will meet in May Township on May 19 at 6PM (Before our regular meeting), it will be held at the township hall located at 5834 112th St. SW in Pillager. This session is expected to include a public hearing regarding the revocation of County Roads 102 and 104.

What to Expect
These traveling meetings are frequently used for formal public hearings regarding road maintenance and township infrastructure.
Residents often have the opportunity to speak directly with their district commissioners about local concerns before or after the formal agenda. While standard county business is conducted, the agenda usually highlights projects specific to that region of the county.

🐿️ Did you know? Minnesota’s "Gopher War" dates back to the late 1800s! 🌾

Back then, gophers were considered such a threat to grain crops and railroad embankments that the state mandated county-level bounties. Today, that tradition continues as a way to protect our local roads and fields.

📍 Update for May Township Residents:
At the recent Annual Meeting, the 2026 gopher bounty was set at $4.00 per pair of feet.

Residents must provide a pair of feet to claim the bounty. And, feet must be turned in during the same year the gopher was caught.
