We are looking to sign a contract with a new assessor for 2023-2024.  Our current assessor is not able to commit as to whether they will be able (due to staffing) to complete the required re-evaluation in 2024.  The current assessor uses Market Drive.  2023 is a maintenance year and 2024 will be a required market update revaluation.

Please submit a bid to the clerk at Montrose@Chorus.net by Oct. 4, 2022, our next board meeting.  If you aren’t able to submit by Oct. 4, but are interested also email the clerk. 

Fall is approaching, and STH 69 is starting to take its final shape!!

• The Bridge over the Badger Mill Creek is closed.
