UPDATE ON VOTER NOTIFICATION DUE TO REDISTRICTING
The Clerk’s office on January 20 had a teleconference call with the Government Accountability Board (GAB). All municipalities with a February primary were required to participate in this call. The Clerk’s office has been in the process throughout the month of January of correcting exceptions to the Statewide Voter Registration System (SVRS) reports due to the redistricting updates.
As of this date, SVRS is still not set up to generate voter notification of redistricting changes. The Clerk’s office will continue to work diligently with the GAB to insure that the data is correct for the Village. As soon as the system allows, the Clerk’s office will notify all voters in Germantown of their correct voting location.

Waste Management's telephone number is (262) 251-4000.
