2nd QUARTER UTILITY BILLING

Second quarter Utility Bills were mailed to residents last week.  If you did not receive the green postcard bill in your mail, please contact Village Hall - 284-9423.

  

Reminder...toilets are the largest cause of silent leaks.  If you notice your bill is unusually  high, you may have a leak.  You can check for toilet leaks by placing a drop of natural food coloring in the tank - do not flush.  Check it in 15-20 minutes.  If color appears in the bowl, it is leaking water.  The toilet most likely leaking is the toilet rarely used.  Contact Village Hall with any questions or stop in for a die test packet.  

 

Attention Credit Card Users:

Starting in October the Village is going to a new credit card payment system in the office- GovPayNow.   

All credit and debit cards are accepted: MasterCard, Visa, American Express, and Discover.

Service Fees will apply.  Information is available at Village Hall.

Please remember Auto Pay - automatic withdrawal from a checking or savings account - is free.  Also you can  pay  on-line through Official Payments with a debit card for $2.75 or credit card for 2.75%.  We also accept check or cash payment. 

RECREATIONAL BURNING/FIRE PITS

Village of Saukville Ordinance requires that a burn permit be obtained prior to use of outdoor fire stoves or in-ground pits and that such devices are to be used for recreational burning only.  Approval from the Fire Chief is mandatory before installing a permanent in-ground fire pit.  The permit fee is $15.  Burn permits are valid for the life of your residency at the designated premise.  Contact Village Hall (284-9423) for more info. 

PET WASTE REMINDER

Summer is here - and more people are out walking.  The Village would like to remind all resident pet owners to clean up after their pets.   Animal waste, when not properly disposed, can be tracked into homes and even our natural waterways.  Village Ordinance #493 requires pet owners to remove any pet waste immediately after deposit on public or private property not owned or possessed by the pet owner.  

 

Please do your part and keep Saukville clean and healthy for all to enjoy and pick up after your pet.   Remember, leaving this waste (even in plastic bags) is a form of litter.

RETIRE YOUR U.S. FLAG PROPERLY

Though the freedom, justice, and sacrifice they represent will live forever, all U.S. flags eventually reach the end of their useful lives.  Honor your old, faded, or damaged American Flags by disposing of them in the proper manner.  Bring your old  flags to Saukville American Legion Post 470, 601 W. Dekora Street, Saukville.  A receptacle is located outside on the southeast corner of the building.  Place your unwanted flags in the receptacle and they will be respectfully retired as outlined by the United States Flag Code.  Contact your Local American Legion with any questions, or if you have a flag you wish to be picked up.
