Why am I receiving a post card, when I never received one before?

You are receiving a card because the Planning and Zoning Department has been given a mandate (June 2005) by the State of Wisconsin to accurately keep a record of maintenance on all private on-site wastewater treatment systems (i.e. sanitary systems) in Bayfield County. Prior to the 2005 mandate, the property owner(s) were responsible to keep the system properly maintained. The state law has been in effect since 1981.
