2026 Road Update
This coming year, 2026, we will be conducting our annual road inspection tour to determine any projects that may need attention. We will continue maintaining our asphalt and gravel Roads to keep them in a safe driving condition.
One thing we would ask of our residents is to not put unwanted items in our road ditches. Each year we have to pick up items that need to be brought to the Materials Recovery Center. This adds costs to the taxpayers that should not happen. It is the responsibility of Canosia Residents to dispose of unwanted items themselves.
As always, if you see something that you feel may need to be addressed please reach out to me at comnick@msn.com or 218-590-6473.
Thank You,
Kevin L. Comnick
Canosia Township Supervisor
Town of Canosia Driveway Permits
If you are planning to build a driveway on a township road, you will need to download and submit this form: Driveway Permit Application. With the permit application, we will also need two checks: one $35 permit fee and one $250 deposit. Both should be made out to Canosia Township. The $35 covers the ordering of your new 911 road signage and administrative fees. The $250 check will be returned upon final approval from the township Road Foreman.
Once the permit application and checks have been submitted, construction can begin once the Road Foreman has visited the site and approved the design. Additional rules and instructions can be found on the permit application form.
Please call the Town Clerk 218-260-5600 to arrange a time to drop off the application; Please call the Road Foreman 218-390-3265 with any technical questions or if the finished driveway is ready for approval.
