Mishicot electors to vote on $125,000 levy hike for ambulances
MISHICOT – Town of Mishicot residents will decide Nov. 24 whether to raise the town's property tax levy by $125,000, mostly to cover a steep jump in ambulance service costs. A special town elector meeting is set for 6 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 24, at the Mishicot VFW Hall, 314 W. Main St. See Nov. 3 election results: Here's what Tuesday's election results mean for Manitowoc County If electors approve, the increase would appear on the 2026 tax bills mailed in December. It would continue each year until electors vote to change it, according to a notice dated Nov. 5 from the Town Clerk's Office. What it would cost The increase would add about 72 cents to a tax bill for every $1,000 of assessed property value, the notice says. For example, a property assessed at $300,000 would owe about $216.86 more in the town's portion of the tax bill.

More mobile crisis units needed for mental health response | Letters
Tragedy occurs as a result of untreated mental illness. For example, the deaths of babies and children, school shootings, defensive police shootings. Perhaps what has worked in the past may help. Years ago, before the 90’s, the public health department made home visits to every newborn baby regardless of income or immigration status. These registered nurses were able to assess the baby and the mother. They could detect child abuse and post-partum depression and obtain the necessary resources. There also existed, prior to the Reagan administration , mental health clinics located within each community called catchment areas. These clinics were staffed by mental health professionals and treated clients of all insurance and incomes. One partial solution to the shortage of mental health professionals: clinical psychologists, psychiatrists and advanced practice nurses, would be to pay for a portion of their education in exchange for practicing for four years in the area mental health care.
