Operation Rooster Roundup is still in progress. It sounds like at least 12 Roosters have been caught.
A huge thank you to the people who volunteered to come try to catch them.
The sad thing is that a simple post on Facebook about having Roosters to give away would have been a better option.

******* Yes, it's pretty obvious someone decided it was easier to just dump these guys off instead of trying to get rid of them. There are some people that have volunteered to come try to catch/trap them but Im sure after atleast 12 hours they are scattered. So if anyone around 115th Avenue has a rooster show up this is why. If you want a rooster than feel free to keep him 😀🐓 *******Check your coops! Anyone missing about 20 Roosters? We seem to have some that just showed up.

The Town of Arthur will be lifting the road bans on April 20th.
We understand the inconvenience that these weight limits cause however protecting our infrastructure remains the Town's top priority. Because the garbage providers have changed how they handle these weight limits, the Town will work more proactively next year to secure additional options for our residents. In the meantime, a dumpster provided by Johnson Rolloff is available at the Town Hall at the Town's expense. Please be RESPECTFUL when using this service. Please reach out to the Town if you have any questions.

2026 GRAVEL PRICING - TOWN OF ARTHUR RESIDENTS

The Town has accepted the gravel bid from Haas Sons for 2026. Residents can purchase gravel at $10.34 per ton for 3/4" Dense Base material at the township price. (Note: residents pay $1.00/ton more than the town price for the same material.)

A typical dump truck holds about 21.5 tons, so you're looking at approximately $222 per load. You'll pay for the actual tonnage delivered as shown on your delivery slip.

Gravel is available when the town is hauling. If you need delivery outside those times, residents must call the Haas office at (715) 669-5469, option 2, to place an order — they may be able to work with you but can't guarantee it.

Payment is due upon delivery. You can pay the driver with cash or check, or call the Haas office ahead of time to pay by credit card.

Contact: Haas 715-669-5469 option 2

Garbage Service Update

As many of you know, seasonal road bans have caused GFL and Waste Management to suspend garbage pickup for customers on posted town and county roads.

The Town Board reached out to both companies and offered to let them place a dumpster at Town Hall for their customers to use during the road bans. Unfortunately, both companies declined.

Rather than leave residents without any option, the Town has hired Johnson Roll-Off at the taxpayers' expense to place a dumpster in the Town Hall parking lot for the remainder of the road ban period.

Please be respectful of the dumpster — no chemicals, no electronics, no appliances, and no furniture.

If you have questions, contact the Town Clerk at 715-289-3113.

We've received questions about why garbage trucks can't be granted an exemption to run during the current road bans. We appreciate the questions and want to make sure everyone understands what's at stake.

During spring thaw, frost melts from the top down and traps a saturated layer of soil beneath the pavement. Heavy trucks on roads in this condition don't just cause wear — they can shatter the road surface entirely, requiring full reconstruction.

Road damage from overweight vehicles during spring thaw can easily cost hundreds of thousands of dollars or more to repair. For a town our size, that kind of damage would mean a significant property tax increase for every resident — far more than what anyone is paying for garbage service.

It's also important to understand that these aren't just Town of Arthur road bans. Chippewa County's seasonal weight limits went into effect on March 5th, and WisDOT enforces its own spring thaw restrictions statewide. Even if we opened every town road tomorrow, the county routes these trucks need to reach our roads are already banned. The trucks can't get here to begin with.

Road bans are not a decision we take lightly, and we know the disruption is frustrating. This is an ongoing discussion at our board meetings, and there is no easy answer. But allowing heavy equipment to destroy roads that taxpayers will then have to pay to rebuild is simply not an option.

To help during this period, the Town has offered all local garbage providers the option to place a dumpster at Town Hall for their customers' use. We have not yet received a response from any provider. If your service has been interrupted, please contact your garbage provider directly to ask about their plans during road ban season.
