As temperatures this fall have been changing fast, so do the needs for home heating. For some families, the arrival of colder temperatures creates a need to seek extra assistance with their energy bills. The Village of Paw Paw has a webpage listing helpful information for State and local resources.

Reminder: Planning Commission to consider issue of sound & noise at Warner Vineyard

The Village of Paw Paw Planning Commission will be holding a public hearing on Thursday, October 8, 2026 at 7 p.m. at Paw Paw Township Hall to take public comment on the issue of noise & sound at Warner Vineyards.
Earlier this year, the Planning Commission issued a Special Land Use permit, in conjunction with its approval of an expansion site plan for Warner Vineyard’s Outdoor Entertainment Venue.
The site plan approval allowed Warner to pursue the expansion that took place over the summer, with an enlarged stage and seating area.

The Special Land Use regulation addresses many aspects of the Outdoor Entertainment Venue at Warner Vineyard, including security, insurance, capacity, entrance & egress, trash & rubbish, sanitation, parking, communication, and similar items.
The Planning Commission determined that Warner Vineyard has successfully addressed most elements of the Outdoor Entertainment Venue regulations. However the issue of noise and sound escaping the venue and causing disruption outside the property remains unresolved. The Commission also committed to reevaluating the issue after the expansion had taken place.
Following the hearing, the Commission may consider placing new or different requirements on the venue in order to reduce any negative effects of noise and sound from the venue.
