Water Shut Off Date 

Just a reminder that as of Friday, May 5^th, 2015 anyone who owes outstanding taxes will have their Water Shut Off.  The deadline for payment is Thursday, April 30^th, 2015.  Please contact the town office to set up payment options for these accounts.  The Town Council now have a terminal where as you can come to the Office and pay by cash, visa, or mastercard

After this date, notices will be sent to people with outstanding accounts. An outstanding account is one that is owed for a previous year.  This water shut off will be strictly enforced and all outstanding accounts will have to be paid in full before water will be turned back on. There will be an extra $100.00 charge to have your water turned back on. Please consider your priorities if it’s a car, ski doo, atv, ect payment or if it’s the necessities of water and or sewer.

We once again would like to thank those residents who make a point of paying their accounts on time.  We feel it is only fair that everyone pay their share.  Just a reminder that if you have no transportation to the council office please contact the town office and we can  make arrangements to have your payment picked up . If there are no taxes being collected then someone has to suffer and those services will have to be cut.

Snow Clearing 

As you are aware, there has been an enormous amount of snow this year. The Town has faced many challenges in keeping the roads plowed and cleared. The snow clearing budget has exceeded its limit and still continue to do so. If taxes are not paid, the snow clearing and garbage collection will have to be drastically reduced because that is how the snow plow operators and garbage collector get paid. If there are no taxes being collected then someone has to suffer and those services will have to be cut.
