Update: our water situation is still fluid, no pun intended. The huge leaks we thought we had may not have been huge leaks after all. A couple of smaller leaks have been identified and turned off (not affecting customers) and our levels in our tanks are rising appropriately. (more…)

Hi everyone. Im sure you have heard about our “water problem”.

(more…)

At 10:15, Saturday morning, MLive received a phone call from a non-city source, very familiar with local water resources, reporting that the City of Monticello is currently searching for a major water leak, that is causing water resources to be seriously depleted. (more…)

Because of the present road conditions and the impending forecast trash trucks will not run this week until they can do so safely.

Wards 1 & 2 will be picked up Saturday and Wards 3 & 4 will be picked up Sunday. Commercial bins will also be picked up on Saturday and Sunday.

We are asking bin owners to call the water office at 367-4400 or the Transfer Station at 367-4407 if they are over full. We will bring pick up trucks and hands to reduce their bin and extend their use time

At the past two city planning commission meetings, discussion lead to a proposed sign ordinance, detailed in the video below, covering damaged business signs around the local landscape, and regulations specifying upkeep and display of them.

At the January meeting of the Monticello Parks Commission, Logan Hancock of EFS Geotechnical presented a suggested mapping location of the city’s proposed disc golf course.

The proposed course would be built at the Harris Road end of Lake Monticello, near where the restrooms are located, after the area is cleared.

The overall image of the lake shows the location where the course could be built.  The other image shows the possible disc golf holes, that were presented.

The city of Monticello has restarted their
“leaf and limb pick-up”.

Please call City Hall at 367-4400, ext. 1, for the water department, to put your address on the list.

However, if you prefer to burn your leaves, please remember there is now a burning ordinance in Monticello. Call the fire department at 367-5433 to get your burning permit.
