Sanitary sewer rates will be going up in the Village of Windsor.
On Thursday, the village board unanimously approved rate increases for the next three years, with a $7.86 jump occurring in the first year, followed by hikes of $1.70 in years two and three of the plan.
They take effect Dec. 21. No debt will be incurred, but the measure does include a phasing in of $100,000 to $200,000 in depreciation/reserve funding. That money will go towards system improvements in the village.
âIt will allow us to have funding on hand to make improvements to lines and mains without having to go out and borrow for that,â said Village Administrator Tina Butteris.
The building that once housed Papinoâs Pizzeria & Pasta restaurant could soon become the home of a butcher and specialty market.
On Thursday, Dec. 10, the Village of Windsor Plan Commission conducted a site plan review for the proposed business and then approved it.
The market expects to sell farm fresh products, local sundries and cook-to-order gourmet pizzas and sandwiches, in addition to locally sourced quality meats.
âWeâre beyond thrilled,â said Monique Branch, who along with Judson Branch is petitioning the village for approval of its plans for the market, to be named Branch + Daughters. âItâs been a long time coming. We think weâve found the right location and the right people.â
