SNOW PLOWING: Snow season has officially begun. Page Township generally does not dispatch the plow unless 3 inches of snow has fallen and it will not be sent out in hazardous conditions. Drivers must yield to the plow and exercise caution when traveling on unplowed roads.

• Any damage to a mailbox or other personal property from plow operations will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. No mailboxes will be replaced unless they have proper swing-away posts.
• It is unlawful for residents or landowners to push snow onto or across any public right-of-way, including Township Roads.

Page Township Update
November 2019

NOVEMBER MEETING: The next regular meeting of the Page Township Board of Supervisors will be held on Monday, November 18th at 7:00pm at the Town Hall. The meeting agenda is posted as a .pdf in the Google Drive.

US-169 INTERSECTION: After too many fatal and serious accidents at the junction of County Road 11 (190th Street) and US-169, most caused by T-bone collisions on the northbound side, MnDOT is seeking to alter the traffic flow to create a Reduced Conflict Intersection. This arrangement forces cross traffic to travel a short distance north or south on 169 and do a U-turn to merge back on in the opposite direction. Although safety should be improved, this will also affect the Page Township business district located nearby, particularly for traffic seeking to head south out of the area. The Board will discuss the issue at the November meeting and consider whether to make any official recommendations to improve the current plan. Residents and affected business owners are encouraged to attend to provide input.

INTERNET SPEED: Broadband speed throughout Page Township is often quite low, and may be below what has been promised in marketing materials. Mille Lacs County is requesting local residents complete an internet speed test for use by the state Office of Broadband Development for review and enforcement.
