🗳️ WHAT TO KNOW ABOUT VOTER REGISTRATION & ABSENTEE BALLOT MAILERS

With the November 3, 2026 General Election approaching, Wisconsin residents may receive voter registration forms, absentee ballot applications, or other election-related materials in the mail from third-party organizations, political groups, or voter advocacy organizations.

⚠️ These mailings are not necessarily from the Wisconsin Elections Commission (WEC) or the City of Omro.

Third-party mailings may contain outdated or incorrect information and can sometimes cause registered voters to believe they are not currently registered. Some organizations are also mailing pre-filled absentee ballot applications.

Wisconsin voters can use the official MyVote Wisconsin website to:

• Check your current voter registration status
• Update your name or address, when required

• Request an absentee ballot
• Track the status of an absentee ballot
• Find contact information for your municipal clerk

🌐 MyVote Wisconsin: MyVote.wi.gov www.myvote.wi.gov

Official correspondence from the Wisconsin Elections Commission will be clearly identified as coming from the WEC and may include its official letterhead, logo, state seal, and/or the Official Election Mail logo.

📬 Not sure whether an election mailing you received is legitimate?

City of Omro voters are encouraged to contact the City Clerk’s Office before submitting personal information or returning an election-related mailing if they have questions about its authenticity.

💧 CITY OF OMRO HYDRANT FLUSHING NOTICE 💧

The City of Omro Public Works Department will be conducting hydrant and water main flushing throughout the City from September 14 through October 9, 2026.

There is no specific schedule or order for individual neighborhoods or streets. Public Works crews will move throughout the City and complete flushing as time allows within their daily work schedule.

🚰 What residents may notice: During flushing, you may temporarily experience brown, rusty, or discolored water. This is caused by naturally occurring minerals and sediment being stirred up in the water mains during the flushing process.

If your water is discolored, run your COLD water until it runs clear. It may take several minutes for the discoloration to clear.

Residents may also want to check their water before doing laundry, particularly when washing white or light-colored clothing.

Hydrant flushing is an important part of maintaining the City's water system and helps ensure reliable water service and proper operation of our fire hydrants.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation while the Public Works Department completes this important maintenance! 💧

🚲🛴 Ride Smart. Ride Safe. Omro!

The City of Omro and Omro Police Department are working to educate our community about the rules for e-bikes and e-scooters. Whether you are a rider, parent, caregiver, pedestrian, or motorist, knowing the rules helps keep everyone safe.

Important reminders for riders:

🪖 Under 18? A helmet is required when operating or riding as a passenger on an e-bike or e-scooter.
🚶 Pedestrians have the right-of-way. Slow down, yield, and give people plenty of room.
🌉 Walk it across pedestrian bridges. Dismount your bicycle, e-bike, or e-scooter before crossing the Fox River pedestrian footbridge.
🏙️ No sidewalk riding in the C-1 Downtown Commercial District.
🚲 Class 2 and Class 3 e-bikes are not permitted on City sidewalks.
🛴 E-scooters may not exceed 20 MPH, with lower speed limits applying in certain locations and to younger riders.
💡 Be visible after dark. Proper lighting and reflectors are required.
🚫 No reckless riding, racing, wheelies, stunts, or other unsafe operation.
👨‍👩‍👧 Parents: Know the age rules. Different restrictions apply to riders under ages 10, 12, 14, 16, and 18.

The Common Council emphasized education before enforcement when adopting these regulations. Our goal is to make sure riders understand the rules and have the information they need to make safe choices.

Please share this post and talk with the young riders in your household.

BE COURTEOUS. BE CAREFUL. BE OMRO PROUD.
