Dows mayor talks drainage with Board of Supervisors

The issues concerning lateral A in Drainage District #183 are nothing new for the county.

 

Dows Mayor Larry Klatt said, and the Wright County Board of Supervisors agreed, that issues with lateral A, located in the northwest portion of Dows, have been going on for some time.

 

The Board and Klatt discussed the matter at their meeting Monday morning.

 

“On this tile, we have been battling this for years and years,” Klatt said, adding that a homeowner recently came to him about some water seeping into his basement.

 

Over the past several years, District 2 Supervisor Watne said there has been “a lot of maintenance on lateral A.”
