The Kewaunee County Board of Supervisors met for the first time in 2023 on Tuesday evening, having no new resolutions to address but did cover several important committee reports. Supervisor and Land & Water Committee member Tim Kinnard updated the board on information from last week’s meeting. The key topic was the concern about the spiking of nitrate levels during different times of the year in a new subdivision on the northwest side of the village of Casco. He said that well-testing results collected by UW-Stevens Point last fall in Kewaunee County revealed levels of nitrates ranging from the 20s to 40s at some recently built homes.
Kinnard added that the Land & Water Committee would discuss options and look for solutions at its next meeting in February. The next Kewaunee County Board of Supervisors meeting will be on Tuesday, February 14, at 5 p.m. at the Kewaunee County Administration Center.
