River Falls, Troy clash over subdivision review amid Hudson boundary talks

The River Falls Plan Commission on Nov. 4 recommended that the city restore its full extraterritorial subdivision review authority, a move the town of Troy has contested. The decision comes as Hudson and Troy work on a cooperative boundary agreement without River Falls as a party. Hudson moved from a fourth-class to a third-class city in 2022, a change city staff said at the time was driven mainly by the chance to extend its extraterritorial plat approval jurisdiction from 1.5 to 3 miles.

SHELL LAKE — The Washburn County Finance Committee held its public hearing on the 2027 proposed budget on Thursday, Nov. 5. Chair Stephen Smith presented the budget summary, which proposed a levy against all taxable property for $11,942,491 for county purposes, as specifically enumerated in the 2027 budget. The proposed mill rate is $2.249 per $1,000 of equalized valuation. The mill rate this year is lower than 2026, which was $2.40. During public comment, Linda Zillmer of the Village of Birchwood thanked all the county departments and staff for their work. However, she noted that no other County Board supervisors were present beyond the Finance Committee members that night. “This is one of the most important documents a county can adopt,” she said. She said it would be helpful to have the TV screens in the board room display the information when presenting the budget.
