District 17 County Board Report: District 17 County Board Supervisor Dave Smith reported on the following
items:
• Address/Fire Number signs are continuing to be replaced. Currently the County is in phase one of
replacements. This means if your signpost is located in the correct place and is usable, the sign will be
replaced. If it is not, then the County will replace it during phase two.
• The County is looking at adding a centrally located ambulance station in Northern Door County. The
locations being considered are the old Zion Lutheran School on County Rd V or a Greenfield site. The goal
is to be able to provide service within 15 minutes.
• Regarding the Donny S. Tugboat, the DNR has made it very clear that they feel the removal of the Tugboat
is not their financial responsibility. However, they have expressed that they are in a position to help oversee
the removal if someone else were to come up with the funds. It is not the Town’s or the County’s
responsibility to provide or procure funding for removal.
