Casco woman identified as victim in fatal Kewaunee County crash

A 55-year-old Casco woman has been identified as the person killed in a two-vehicle crash in the Town of Luxemburg on Nov. 5. Julie Bertrand was driving a minivan that collided with an oncoming cargo truck at the intersection of State 54 and Walhain Road in the Town of Luxemburg, according to Kewaunee County Sheriff Matt Joski. Bertrand was eastbound on State 54 when she crossed into the westbound lane, an initial investigation determined. The driver of the cargo truck, Tanner Brunner, 28, of Green Bay, was transported by Luxemburg Rescue for treatment of injuries that were not life-threatening. No passengers were in either vehicle. The circumstances leading up to the crash remain under investigation by the Kewaunee County Sheriff's Department, with assistance from the Wisconsin State Patrol Accident Reconstruction Team. Assisting agencies included the Luxemburg Police Department, Wisconsin State Patrol, Luxemburg Fire and Rescue, and Luxemburg-Casco First Responders.

Green Bay Notre Dame, Kingston Allen march to playoff win over Pulaski

In a season where Green Bay Notre Dame star running back Kingston Allen makes history on a weekly basis, his team is on the verge of making a little, too. Notre Dame beat Pulaski 35-7 in a WIAA Division 2 quarterfinal at Stock Family Stadium on Nov. 6, just one win away from reaching a state title game for the third straight year. The Tritons – along with Bay Port in D1 – have an opportunity to become the second local team to make three straight championship games since the WIAA started sponsoring a tournament in 1976. West De Pere made the D3 title game in 2009, 2010 and 2011. Notre Dame will play Union Grove in a semifinal. The Tritons ended the regular season ranked No. 1 in the state in D2 by the Wisconsin Football Coaches Association, while the Broncos were No. 2. Both teams enter 12-0. Notre Dame will attack Union Grove much like it did every opponent this season: It will give the ball to the 6-foot-1, 200-pound Allen and have him work his magic behind an offensive line that can be just as dominant as him. Allen rushed for 284 yards on 37 carries and

Green Bay Mayor Eric Genrich proposes his last and largest city budget

(This story has been updated to add new information.) Green Bay Mayor Eric Genrich has proposed his last city budget, suggesting a $149.6 million fund for expenses in 2027. It would be the city’s largest budget to date to cover the growing costs of public services that have worried officials about their reliance on property taxes. The proposal would grow the city’s overall spending by about 4% from 2026, a faster rate of change than 2025-2026 and slower than the years immediately following the city’s revaluation done in 2022. Property taxes would rise modestly. Genrich posed a tax rate of $8.62 for every $1,000 of assessed property value, a 3% rise from 2026. For a property estimated at $250,000, the owner would pay $2,155 in taxes for city services, or about $62 more than 2026, not including other tax bill items, like county, school district and technical college taxes unaffected by the city’s budget. In all, the city would collect $75.6 million in levied property taxes, including tax increment districts. This would be about 3.6% greater than the $72.9 million levied in 2026.
