Road Committee

As of October 2025 the fall grading for all township roads has been completed. There will be touchup work that will continue until the first snowfall. If there are any concerns with the roads please contact Jerry Larson directly. Over the summer 225th Street from Biscayne east, Biscayne Ave from 225th to 240th, 250th Street off Hwy 3, 240th Street east of the townhall and Denmark Ave received lifts (gravel was applied and the road crown was restored). The road committee will meet in January 2026 to determine what road projects will be scheduled for 2026. If you have any comments please forward them to Jerry Larson. County Road 86 has reopened. While the road is opened the county will be paving 80 feet under the rail trestle that goes over 275th. The township will be working with the county to provide improved water drainage from under the trestle. Snowplowing season is just around the corner and a reminder to all residents to make sure the right of ways along your property are free from obstructions. Also it is unlawful to plow snow into the right of way. If you need to push snow across the road it should be pushed to at least 10 feet from the edge of the road.

Parks Committee

The Board of Supervisors decided to let the residents decide on whether to sell Rocky Hills Park. The decision will be put to the residents at the annual meeting in 2026. Please attend if you would like to participate in the discussion and vote. 

North Cannon Valley WMO

Heather Mavencamp is the Township representative on the North Cannon Valley WMO. 

Here are some programs that were shared at the April 17 meeting that may be relevant to the residents:



Incentive Payment Practices Program (IPP)

The Incentive Payment Practices (IPP) program provides funding for the voluntary establishment of conservation projects.

All projects must demonstrate a water quality improvement and comply with local, state, and federal regulations. SWCD staff will work with applicants on project planning and design, and to submit a final project application. Applications are prioritized for funding based on their potential to provide water quality benefits. The number of applications approved may be limited by the amount of funding and staff time available.
