Roads – It was brought to the attention of the township board that there has been an issue involving a school bus and the canister site recycling company. When they come to change out the recycling canisters, it is done early morning in the dark and they are stopped along the side of the road. These trucks and canisters do not have any lights or reflective tape on them, which makes it almost impossible to see them and the bus has had close calls with this. The township board will contact the county and ask them to resolve this issue.
