Water & Sewer

    • Anticipated to begin in August 2020
    • Utility relocates along STH 15 between Julius Drive and Lily of the Valley Drive. Existing sanitary sewer and water main facilities will be relocated to accommodate the future STH 15 WisDOT expansion project.

    • The Purpose of the Town of Greenville’s Cross Connection Control Program, as defined in the local Ordinance §340-26, is to help eliminate possible contamination of the public water distribution system.
    • These inspections began in February 2020 but were suspended shortly after due to the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. The Sanitary District is now hoping to complete the remaining inspections.

Parks, Recreation & Forestry
  • Greenville Sports Complex
    • Rettler Corporation has been contracted to design and engineer a new entrance road to the property. This new entrance road is consistent with the Master Plan for the park and will provide a safer access to the park from Hwy 96. This entrance road will be an official Town road and will also provide safe access to Well #5 and a private residence. Construction is planned to be completed in 2020.
  • Lions Park
    • The Lions Club is installing the fencing for the future sport courts in the southeast quadrant of the park as well as completing landscape restoration of the area. Any additional work in this area is postponed due to the cancellation of their main fundraising efforts for 2020.

  • Chip Garrow Memorial Trail
    • On August 6 the Town, along with his family and friends, held a dedication ceremony to unveil the Chip Garrow Memorial Trail. This memorial is the Town’s effort to honor Chip’s service to the community. It is a result of a year’s worth of planning and we would like to extend our gratitude to all of those that were involved in the effort. The memorial is located at Jennerjohn Park behind the tennis courts.
