Volunteers Needed

4/2/2020

A Washington County organization that traditionally provides transportation to senior citizens is working on additional help for those they serve during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Volunteers for the Washington County Interfaith Caregivers are currently spending less of their volunteer time providing transportation for senior citizens during the current calls for the public to stay home and remain in isolation. But Interfaith officials realized the senior citizens they have been serving still need daily contact, even though they can’t receive that during the few transportation trips they still provide.

“It’s been a bonus for both sides and it’s also a way for us to, without calling it a well check, just checking in our seniors,” Brudvig said. “We also do food deliveries or pharmacy deliveries and we can still do those so it’s a good way to see if they are OK and if they need anything.”Anyone interested in volunteering can find an application on the Interfaith website: www.interfaithwashco. org or call their office 262-365-0902.

Scenic Pit operator issued four citations for alleged DNR violations Zoulek Family LLC faces possible fines totaling $60,000

By Joe VanDeLaarschot

RICHFIELD – The operators of the Scenic Pit cleanfill landfill in the village are scheduled to make an initial appearance in Washington County Circuit Court Feb. 6 at 8:15 a.m. after recently being issued four citations by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources.

Danah Zoulek, who along with her family has operated Scenic Pit for about two years said she is "working diligently with the DNR and suppliers" to clean up the problem that she said is the reason for the citations. She said the citations were issued because the trucks coming and going into the landfill were tracking excess mud onto the village road.

Hwy Q and Hillside Road

12/17/2019

The intersection of Hwy Q and Hillside Road will be reconstructed with a new roundabout in 2023. That intersection was identified as one of the most dangerous intersections in Washington County’s 2019 Traffic Safety Analysis Plan. Allowing right turns only from Hillside Road has helped reduce accidents.

During 2013-2018, 37 accidents occurred at that intersection. Washington County, along with Richfield and Town of Lisbon, applied for and obtained Highway Safety Improvement funding for the project. The federal/state government will pay about $1,620,000 and local jurisdictions will pay about $180,000 of the project costs.
