Dorl Endorses Vinehout

Submitted by admin on Wed, 02/28/2018 - 8:32am

Dear Editor,
Green County has experienced a great deal of flooding in the past few weeks, and I know that it is due to excessive rain on frozen ground. However, we need to preserve our wetlands, and Kathleen Vinehout for governor will do just that. If wetlands are not allowed to do their job, we can only expect more flooding at all times of the year.

Teasdale Invites Monticello Residents to Informational Meetings

Submitted by admin on Wed, 02/28/2018 - 8:31am

To the Residents of the Village of Monticello,
Personally, I doubt that the average citizen of the state of Wisconsin has any idea as to how the levy limits imposed on us by the Wisconsin State legislature is affecting our ability to run our village business. As I have been talking directly to other smaller communities, I am finding they are facing the same dilemmas that we are facing. We are not in this alone.
