The statewide tornado drill has been postponed and rescheduled for Thursday at 1:30pm due to potential severe weather in the state tomorrow.

March 8th thru 12th is severe weather awareness week. Please take a moment to make sure you are prepared in the event of severe weather. More information can be found here:

http://www.crh.noaa.gov/eax/?n=severewx-awareness

On Thursday March 11th, at 1:30pm Buhler will be participated in the statewide tornado drill. The fire department will be sounding the sirens at that time. This would be a good time for practice your plans.

For those without a basement or storm shelter, please take a moment to review your shelter options:

1. Buhler Mennonite Brethren Church

2. Buhler Mennonite Church

3. Farmers National Bank – this site will likely be closed during non-business hours

It’s important to note that tornado sirens are designed to warn those who are outdoors. If you are indoors, it’s important that you monitor local media and weather outlets for times to take shelter.

If you would like to sign up for Buhler weather alerts via email, including storm watches and warnings go to:

It's census time all over the nation including right here in Buhler.  In the coming weeks you will be recieving a letter in the mail with 10 quick questions.  Fill it out please!  It's very important for a community our size to get every resident counted.  Each resident counts and equates to funding dollars, congress seats, and overall important community data.  Local residents will be assisting this effort and will likely swing by your way if you don't mail in the form!

Special thanks to former Mayor Marlo Oltman who is heading up Buhler's census effort.  Contact the city office for more information.

County Revamping 82nd - in part PDF Print E-mail
Written by Mayor Daniel Friesen

I recieved word last week from the county that the widening and hill reduction project of 82nd street west of town is due to begin sometime in late spring.  However, one thing I didn't realize is that the project will only extend to Kent Road.  That's about 2 miles of road work.  That also means the flood area near the "S" curves will not be addressed.  I was disappointed to hear the road work would not extend all the way to K-61 but any progress to making 82nd a safer and easier travel to Buhler is welcome.


I will be contacting the County about ways to get the rest of 82nd street completed.  Please email me with your comments on this issue.  This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it
