Starke County Highway Superintendent Rik Ritzler has announced that the highway department will begin mowing county rights-of-way on Monday, May 20, and will continue through the summer. He said it is important to remember that for safety reasons, workers will be mowing up to five feet from the county right-of-way, and at each intersection, they will mow 50 feet in each direction and back 10 feet. He said most items have been cleared from the rights-of-way, but any items that are still in the mowing path will be dealt with on an individual basis.
