Early in October, the Door County Facilities and Parks Department closed the entrance to Ellison Bluff County Park with the expectation it would be reopened soon. That has been pushed back until the beginning of November at the earliest. Parks Superintendent Ben Nelson says the cause is two-fold.

The reallocation of funding to pay for the repairs has already passed out of the Facilities and Parks Committee. It must still go to the Finance Committee and finally to the Board of Supervisors.
