Sewer Delays Open of New Willard Junior High
A sewer problem may push back the opening of Willard’s new junior high next September unless rapid action by the legislature, city council and law director allows a sewer district to be set up in the school area. Opponents may challenge the plan as property owners already on city sewers object to assessments. The Board of Education rejected funding a private sewer and urged an assessment basis. The city also discusses bids for hospital liability insurance and test drilling for wells, plus options for the municipal power plant to either expand, retain, or sell. Remodeling of city hall and updated wiring receive funding, and a 10 percent electrical rate increase was defeated. A request to file a PUCO complaint over Fort Ball Road flashes was approved, and interest in aerial mapping leads to negotiations with survey firms. A new snow plow was bought under $800 and annual reports were accepted.
