As Door County Highway Department crews focus on this year's snow removal, the department is requesting money from the general fund for 2019 winter maintenance. The department exceeded last year's budget by $300,000 to respond to heavier than expected snowfall. Patrol Superintendent Thad Ash says the department will request money from the county's general fund to cover that gap, while also looking towards 2020 winter projections.
The Door County Highway Department will make the request for general fund money when the board of supervisors meets February 25th.
