Ottawa sales tax plan eyed to fund new sewer plant
City officials say Ottawa must replace aging sewer facility to meet growth and quality rules. A proposed one to five dollar monthly surcharge for residents and a 4 percent rise for commercial users would fund design, startup costs, and a 20 year loan totaling about 12 million in interest. Ottawa seeks a 750 thousand federal grant and possible EPA add ons, while outlying Franklin County towns oppose the tax. Cleveland Rickel can be reached for more details.
