Scott Chinn
“The property owners want some service they typically can't get with the township. ... Wisconsin is one of the few states that have town government. They have disappeared in most states or never existed in the first place. Town officials aren't comfortable hearing that.”

Mark Twain
“A judge, a dentist, lawyers, two undertakers, a mayor, a township manager. All the trades, you name it.”
John Barnes
“It's unfortunate that we have that rock sitting in the wrong part of the township.”
