The city's compost site is still closed for grinding. With the winter storms this past winter, we accumulated a larger than normal amount of brush. I expect the site to remain closed through tomorrow.

Thank you for your patience,

We just received notice that the grinder for the city's compost site will be here tomorrow. We will close the compost site tomorrow, October 1st at noon. We have an abundance of brush and lawn waste that needs to be ground so we are not certain of the re-opening date, I expect this to take 3-4 days. I will post an update on here Friday afternoon to keep folks informed best as possible.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation,

The Wisconsin State Patrol is teaming up with the Wisconsin School Bus Association this week to educate motorists about the dangers of illegally passing school buses with their red lights flashing.

Passing a school bus illegally is extremely dangerous as it endangers the lives of students. Special patrols will take place throughout the state this week to remind drivers that they must stop at least 20 feet from a school bus with its red lights flashing.

A citation for failure to stop for a school bus now costs $676.50 and four demerit points. Read more about the campaign: https://wisconsindot.gov/Pages/about-wisdot/newsroom/news-rel/092126-operation-safe-stop.aspx
