In Kewanee, city staff remain actively involved in monitoring the occupancy and utility billing of local mobile home parks, working alongside court-appointed receiver L&B All-Star Properties. Efforts are focused on ensuring residents receive proper notification before any service interruptions due to non-payment or voluntary discontinuation, including communication with legal representatives. Ongoing site visits have revealed continuing property maintenance concerns, such as litter and overgrown vegetation. With the bank declining further maintenance funding, the city has issued a Request for Proposals for mowing services at these sites. Interested parties must submit bids by June 7, 2025, with award recommendations coming at the first Council meeting after that date. More details are available on the city’s website.
