Douglas County to Host “Turnout for Transportation” Meeting on September 29, 2016

Douglas County will host one of 71 public meetings across Wisconsin that will happen simultaneously on September 29, 2016 as part of a statewide “Turnout for Transportation” event. County, city, town and village officials plus members of the business community and the public will have a forum for their voices to be heard regarding critical transportation projects and services in our community and the need for the state to find a sustainable solution to Wisconsin’s transportation challenge.

“Turnout for Transportation “is part of the Transportation Development Association’s Just Fix It campaign that started last year. The purpose of the campaign is to facilitate a statewide dialogue about the condition of Wisconsin’s infrastructure and the impact on Wisconsin residents and businesses.

The Douglas County event will be held at 7:00 pm on Thursday, September 29, 2016 in the County Board Chambers, Room 201 of the Government Center (1316 N. 14th Street, Superior). The meeting will be hosted by Douglas County Administrator Andy Lisak and Town of Lakeside Board Chair and WTA County Unit Chair Tom Johnson. Those interested in sharing their concerns about transportation issues in Douglas County prior to the meeting are encouraged to do so at: www.TurnoutForTransportation.com. The event is open to the public.
