Water Works Bond Issue To Go On Ballot
Council approves placing the water works improvement bond on the November ballot. The plan funds a new force main from Lake Erie pumping station and a new intake with a tax levy shown as $1.8 per $100 valuation though bonds would be paid from water department income. Officials say real estate taxes won’t rise unless water income fails to cover the bonds. A Ridgeville water main project is also approved for future work and petitions for water mains there have been filed.
