 What's New in 2012?
Who we are...The Howards Grove Advancement Association is dedicated to the advancement of the Village of Howards Grove, Wisconsin by supporting and advertising Howards Grove's many vendors and other businesses. We also work to show the many advantages of setting up your business in Howards Grove and we will help you to know the right advertising chances for you and your business in order to extend your reach. Why Howards Grove is right for you...Howards Grove is a village in southeastern Wisconsin. We are an hour north of Milwaukee, and about fifty minutes south of Green Bay. Howards Grove is a rapidly growing community with several new subdivisions being built. This makes Howards Grove an excellent choice for the location of any prospective business or industry. Howards Grove also boasts the Howards Grove School District, which excels in the education of the children of Howards Grove. The village is an excellent family setting. |

Special Referendum: I strongly encourage everyone to read the newsletter insert about the Oct. 12th referendum regarding choosing special assessments or the general tax levy to fund road im-provements. Deciding which method you prefer may depend on the timing of road improvements, property value or linear front footage of your property, as well as other considerations. The Village Board is not an advocate of either method and encourages everyone to attend the upcoming in-formational meetings in order to gather enough facts to make an informed decision.
The 2012 Village Budget, TID #2, and the results of the Special Referendum will be discussed in detail at the upcoming town hall meeting on Tuesday, October 25th. I look forward to seeing you there.
As always, I welcome your comments. Please con-tact me via the “Let Us Know” link on our new web-site (www.howardsgrove.org) or by mail, 341 Mil-lersville Avenue, Howards Grove, WI 53083. I am also available to meet 30 minutes prior to
