North Judson Town Board Awards Trash Bid

The North Judson Town Board members formally awarded the trash bid to Richard’s Disposal at their meeting this week. The Board is now accepting bids for cemetery mowing and those bids are due into the Clerk-Treasurer’s Office by Noon on April 2nd.

The Building Inspector is working with the Unsafe Building Authority to make a list of all of the deteriorated properties in town. Two properties that qualify as unsafe have been identified so far and certified letters will be sent to those property owners as a notice to clean up their property. If the properties are not cleaned up within a certain amount of time, the town will step in and get it done. A lien will be placed against the property for payment of services rendered.
