• Milwaukee area sewer overflows reported amid heavy flooding (wisn.com) — River Hills residents are being warned about unsafe floodwater as sewer overflows are investigated near Range Line Road by the Milwaukee River, plus around Green Tree Road and North River Road. Officials urge people to stay home unless it’s an emergency, noting several other isolated overflow sites in Bayside and Milwaukee as heavy flooding strains the system.
   

• Examining property assessment in Milwaukee County communities (wnanews.com) — River Hills homeowners are part of a Milwaukee County debate over how property assessments are handled, with the village’s 663 parcels contrasted against Milwaukee’s far larger tax base. The report outlines how shared assessors or pooled contracts might change costs, accuracy, and fairness for River Hills and neighboring communities without endorsing any specific reform.
