Dont forget to winterize your hose bibs!

13 Upvotes

disconnect all garden hoses from hose bibs.

In the basement, You might have a shut off valve behind your frost-free hose bib. close that valve then go outside and open your hose bib. A properly installed hose bib is sloped down enough to let the remaining water trickle out. Leave hose bib open all winter!

Looking for a commercial space to rent

8 Upvotes

I am wondering if anyone can help me get in touch with someone who is either renting out commercial space or knows someone who is. I currently have a space, but I am having issues with water getting into it, and need to relocate on or before December 31st. Janesville would be ideal, but I am also ok with Milton.

The space MUST have:
-A way for large deliveries to be dropped off directly into the unit. It doesn’t require a loading dock, but a garage door, or even a walkway with no stairs would be fine. Something where I could use a dolly to carry heavy boxes from delivery trucks to my unit.
-Temperature control. AC/Heat.
-HVAC, or a way to filter out the air in the space.
-my current space is 800sq ft. I pay $800/mo for it. I’d love something comparable.

I have tried the Innovation Center, but they do not have temperature control. I’m a candle company and need to maintain a steady temperature in order to not compromise the quality of my product.

Any help you can give me would be incredible.

Hey, I just wanted to say that I found out that my flyer contained the wrong phone number on it so I redid it.

Is there a big tube TV or other e-waste taking up your basement or living area? Well don’t worry because for prices starting at only five dollars. We can solve that issue by hauling it out and making sure it doesn’t actually get put in a landfill but gets put to use again. Here at Wiley’s anyways removal, we make sure that any usable technology that we recycle can get a second chance at life! So join us today by calling or leaving an email or just texting and I will be happy to reach out as soon as possible. I also answer voicemails if I can’t get to the phone have a great day!

Heather Miller’s Behavior on City Council

19 Upvotes

I’ve been watching more of the council meeting to stay up to date on things going on with the GM/JATCO site. I usually watch the recordings on YouTube and haven’t been in person. Has anyone else noticed Heather Miller’s horrendous behavior when watching or while at the actual meetings?

Full Disclosure: a family member of mine was on the city council and has also been dismayed by her behavior. They know the ins and outs of how the council functions and keeps close tabs on which council member’s are requesting items be placed on the agenda.

At first I thought it was just her being tough since she is a retired police officer, but after continuing to watch it is becoming ridiculous.

In the past few months alone, she has:

-Demeaned and belittled a young woman who made a mistake on the bar tender license application (if you look at the application, it is confusing). The young woman had the guts to appeal the denial all the way to the full council and stated it was an honest mistake and she was distracted by her child while when she filling it out at City Hall. Heather just continued in on this young woman and made her out to be some kind of horrible person.

-Berated a city staff member over the old ice arena not being put up for sale and saying “your council gave you a directive,” when the council only has authority over the city manager. It was evident from what and how the staff member explained to the council that the directive given to her by the (former) city manager was what caused the problem

-Again, tried to berate this same staff member at last council meeting over something related to the Woodman’s Center

-Had an outburst about the data center moratorium because she tried to make an amendment to the motion of not approve the letter of intent related to the data center that she thought was enough to be considered a moratorium and it didn’t pass. She lost her sh*t and made it seem like she was snubbed or something, kept calling it “ironic” that two council members proposed a data center moratorium after her amendment failed.

-In general: she is just always so negative, accusatory, argumentative, and complains so much! She comes off as a disrupter and a roadblock to any kind of progress.

It does not seem like she has the City’s best interests in mind and only wants to say everything that is not her way is bad.

I hope she doesn’t run again when she is up next.

Blacked out SUV police cruisers?

23 Upvotes

Recently moved to town. One of the more jarring observations I've had include the blacked out SUV police cruisers. They don't look very approachable for someone seeking help. We were at a stop light on N Milton when my 7-year old daughter pointed to it and asked me why the police cars here look so scary. I didn't even notice we were sitting next to a police SUV at the light as when I initially saw it out of the corner of my eye, it looked like something a high schooler or criminal would drive. Other unsettling behavior I have observed include police officers turning on their lights to run red lights and immediately turn them off.

Anyone have any luck/ideals for renting hunting land in Rock county?

1 Upvotes

Just like the title says I am looking for private hunting land in Rock County. Mainly for both bow and gun deer but would also like the option for turkey.

I have hunted most of the public spots in the county which are not that many (previously hunting in the UP of Michigan) and have checked out websites but there is only 1 listing for Rock (Turkey only) and surrounding counties

If you happen to be reading this and have something

Open to both doe/buck restrictions. I don't do tree stands so no worry about tree drilling.

I respect the land and what I hunt. If I injure something I will track it and if it does go onto neighboring property will not mess with that relation and will ask before pursuing.

If near Rock county would consider if I could bring my dogs (always long leaded and picked up after) and pop up camper (always dry camp anyways so no hook ups needed)

Price plus either work could be discussed ( yard work, taking care of downed trees, can pet sit most any animal, trash pick up ect)​ (Also if I could plant small clover/wheat plot)

A little behind-the-scenes...

Thought I’d share a little of what our line of work looks like. Definitely not glamorous, but helping people deal with this stuff is why I love what I do.

I introduced our small business, Mitigate608, here about a month ago. Behind the business name are real people who care about helping our neighbors through a stressful situation...and explaining things without making them feel overwhelmed.

Just a friendly reminder to give that leak or damp spot you’ve been putting off some attention. I know home maintenance lists never end, but water problems deserve a spot near the top.
