Richard Hansen replaces Ron Harrell as IVSD commissioner
Richard Hansen has replaced Ron Harrell as president of the Island View Sanitary District as of January 1, 2026. Harrell had been president since November 2007. Here's a message from Richard.
Hello neighbors. My wife and I moved to Island View Drive in 1998, two years after the formation of the Island View Sanitary District. My father was one of the original "lift station operators" as he and my mother moved to IVD several years prior to the formation of the sanitary district. I can still recall ice skating around the discolored ice that formed along the shoreline from the discharge of individual drainage fields. Thankfully, the sanitary district has eliminated this circumstance. Having recently retired after working 33 years as an engineer, the last 27 with a local paper company, I am looking forward to giving back to the neighborhood by serving on the IVSD board. You can often find me running through the streets of the district or outside working in one of my many gardens. Stop by for a chat if you have any suggestions or concerns with the sanitary district. Cheers, Richard
