Township Stood Up!
Ironwood - January 12, 2010

The Ironwood Township held its first meeting of the new year last night. A large audience assembled expecting m to witness a visit from the Ironwood Librarian, Elaine Erickson or a confrontation by Tom Schneller relative to his failed bid on the upcoming sewer project.

Neither event took place. Mrs. Erickson was a no show. She neither appeared nor contacted the Township Office that she would not appear. Elaine was to appear at the meeting to bring the Township up-to-date on the library and how the city folk are spending the Township’s money.

A Daily Globe staff writer was on hand to give the library some more positive spin for the upcoming, yet to be announced tax attack against the already over taxed City dwellers. Sorry Margaret, maybe next time.

Tom Schneller was on hand to bring the Township Board up-to-date on the Water project. Weather permitting, the project will reach Grandview within a couple weeks. U.P. Winter Weather that is!

The bids on the sewer project came in $400,000 under the available federal funding. God news once again for the Township. The board voted to create a committee to find other areas in the township where the sewer project could be expanded to.
