  • While capacity is available, neighboring township residents are invited to participate.
  • Punch cards are required and can be purchased at the Prairieville Township hall during regular business hours.
  • Each punch on the new card is for a 20 gallon container. The punch card is good until it is filled. Additional punch cards can be purchased.
  • Non-Resident Recycling will be the 2nd and 4th Saturday, from 11:00- 1:00.

Remember to crush your water bottles and milk jugs. It really helps free up space. Thank-you.

Notice of Change to Absentee Voter Application

CHANGE IS COMING TO THE PERMANENT ABSENTEE APPLICATION LIST!

The permanent absentee application list is being phased out with the 2024 elections.  In its place will be the permanent mail ballot list.  If you select the permanent mail ballot box in the top right-hand corner of your application, you will automatically be mailed a ballot for any election you are eligible to vote in.  Selecting this box means you will no longer need to fill out the absentee application to receive an absentee ballot.  If you choose not to select the permanent mail box, after the 2024 elections you can still request an absentee ballot. But will need to request that ballot either online, by mail, or at the clerk’s office by filling out an absentee application for the upcoming election.

Selecting the permanent mail ballot will give you some other options to vote.  You may return the ballot by mail, drop box or to the clerk’s office as an absentee ballot.  You may also vote this ballot in person during the early voting period or on election day.  Simply bring your ballot with you to the polls and cast that ballot.  If you choose not to vote in a specific election, you can simply destroy the ballot and it will show in the system as not returned.

REMEMBER—EACH BALLOT IS ASSIGNED A NUMBER TO A SPECIFIC VOTER, NO ONE ELSE MAY VOTE THAT BALLOT.  BALLOT NUMBER AND VOTER ID WILL BE VERIFIED TO PREVENT VOTER FRAUD!
