Summary

St. James Township reported appointments to its Zoning Board and BIRHC Board, openings on the Planning Commission and Airport Board, and a new arrangement for County collection of delinquent personal-property taxes. Peaine Township reported that a reapplication made a $77,000 tub-grinder grant appear likely, although the check was not yet documented, and approved rezoning the Paquin property near Lake Geneserath from Agriculture to R2.

Evidence limits

The article summarizes board discussion and reported actions. It does not establish receipt of the grant, final tax remittances, signed appointments, rezoning text, or a complete set of minutes.
