Failure: The dam on the Maple River just west of Elsie failed on August 17. There has been a temporary fix, and the Duplain Township Board is discussing options.
Update: Heavy storm damage reported in St. Johns
On Thursday night, just about the time we were putting the SJ Indy to bed for the week, a sudden storm rammed through St. Johns. Some streets are closed, and power is out in many places. Here is just a sample of the destruction.
The St. Johns Department of Public Works is out cleaning up storm damage. Downed power lines are being assessed to make sure they are not active. Once it is verified that the lines are not active, tree and debris clean up will begin. Please place storm debris by the curb.
