The Federal Bureau of Investigation was in town a few weeks ago. There wasn’t anyone in trouble with the law, but they were here to help people whose lives are troubled.

Appropriately on the night before France celebrated Bastille Day, Sherwood offered a take on the classic Charles Dickens novel of those revolutionary times, “A Tale of Two Cities.”

With apologies to Dickens, the long July 13 edition of the Sherwood Village Board might easily have been called “A Tale of Two Golf Courses.”

The first portion of a “Tale of Two Golf Courses” in Sherwood centered on plans for High Cliff Golf Course. But at least a portion of the July 13 meeting of the Sherwood Village Board also touched on a vision for the former Sherwood Forest Golf Course.

One of the village’s older streets and the topic of periodic discussion between village and St. John Parish officials will soon pass into history as a through street.

Periodic discussions took place off and on over several years but the village and parish representatives talked more intently beginning in 2014.

Four citizen members and a trustee appointments to the Kimberly Library Board were approved at a recent meeting of the Kimberly Village Board.

If you have a past due amount of $500 or more, you may have heard from Kaukauna Utilities during the past few days.

Cedar Corp was authorized to conduct an illicit discharge detection and elimination program this summer at a recent meeting of the Buchanan Storm Water Utility.

Highway Z (10^th Street and State Street) in Kaukauna will be closed to vehicles in two phases beginning Monday to replace water main and install storm sewer in this area prior to Outagamie County re-paving the road in 2021.

The Village of Little Chute’s new senior citizen apartment complex was the site of a water emergency late on the night of June 7 and early morning of June 8.

Kaukauna residents may soon have an opportunity to celebrate an important moment that ties part of the city’s rich historical heritage with a brand new emphasis that may be a positive state and national example.
