\"DairylandNotice\"<\/a><\/p>\n

“Upgrade” through Holmen, Onalaska, La Crosse, from Briggs Road to some substation south of 90.<\/p>\n

This is a “notice” found in the La Crosse Tribune on Friday.\u00c2\u00a0 Take a close look, yes, it’s hard to read, but multiple searches of the Notices section online have NOTHING, nada…<\/p>\n

This is another USDA Rural Utilities Services project, yet here, there’s no indication of the status of the project, no RUS contact, and they want comments sent to DAIRYLAND, and we’re to trust they’ll send them to whoever.<\/p>\n

Where’s the link to the USDA RUS site?\u00c2\u00a0 Where’s the link for the project application.\u00c2\u00a0 WHERE’S A DECENT MAP!!??!!??!!??<\/p>\n

WHAT KIND OF NOTICE IS THIS?<\/span><\/h3>\n

$50 says it’s USDA’s Stephanie Strength on this project, as she was on the Dairyland Q-1D going north from Briggs Rd. to Marshaland, as she was on the Dairyland financing for its share of CapX 2020.<\/p>\n

Any Comments you send to Dairyland’s Chuck Thompson, I’d advise you also send any comments or questions to (?? NOTE: Stephanie Strength’s two emails are NOT working… so who is Project Manager?)<\/strong><\/span>:<\/p>\n

The map, for starters, is awful, can’t even see it, nothing identified but lines for a couple of major highways, but anyone in the area knows this line, running up and down Hwy 35. from near Briggs Road substation through Onalaska going south and darting with Xcel’s line on the other side, back and forth, through trailer parks, towards 90, across and then south.<\/p>\n

This is what this line looks like, going right through people’s back yards, front yards, and over homes, directly overhead, right next to it, how can Dairyland think this should be “upgraded” — it should be torn down:<\/p>\n

\"Kimberly<\/a><\/p>\n

And at Ulman St., there are two trailers right up against the structures:<\/p>\n

\"Ulman_St[1]\"<\/a><\/p>\n

It’s bad enough that Dairyland is planning this upgrade, but how does any city allow this to happen?\u00c2\u00a0 In what world is it OK to allow development under a transmission line?\u00c2\u00a0 On the other side of Hwy. 35 it’s the same thing, an Xcel transmission line over a trailer park.\u00c2\u00a0 This shows zero regard for human life.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
