Removing snow from hydrants is now an issue in village In Gays Mills
GAYS MILLS - The Gays Mills Village Board was a rather mundane affair last Monday night until the last item on the agenda–then it got contentious.
All it said on the agenda was ‘Snow Removal-Fire Hydrants.’ It was the topic that Gays Mills resident Bob Lomas had been waiting for.
“First of all, I came to receive my shovel,” Lomas said.
It was a reference to a comment made by Gays Mills Director of Public Works Jim Chellevold at the last board meeting.
Chellevold had contended that keeping the area around a fire hydrant shoveled was the responsibility of the property owner. He told the board then that he would deliver a snow shovel during the next snowstorm to the property owner who had taken issue with the idea that shoveling snow around a fire hydrant was the property owner’s responsibility.
Plans to build Dollar General discussed at village board meeting Gays Mills
GAYS MILLS - It appears that Gays Mills may be getting a Dollar General store in the near future.
A closely held secret about the intent of a group, called the Golden Warriors, to buy land in the Applewood Business Park and build a Dollar General was made public Monday at the Gays Mills Village Board meeting.
A representative of the group was present to answer questions about the design review of the building and a certified survey map. Both had been previously approved by the village’s plan commission. The proposed Dollar General store is to be located on a lot in the Applewood Business Park on Highway 131 and Royal Avenue.
