  1. Temporary cups and MORA stickers have been distributed to the seven establishments in the MORA area. In addition, the announcement that the MORA will officially kick off on Saturday, May 3rd was posted on social media.
  2. Masons have begun to lay the block for the new well house at Four Seasons Park. Once they are finished, they will begin putting on the roof and we can then start transferring the equipment from the old building to the new building.
  3. Last Thursday, David Williams and Associates set the tanks for the new splash pad at Paris Street Park. They are to begin installing piping for the splash pad this week. Once the piping is installed, they will pour the remainder of the floor for the shelter house.
  4. National Water Service should be in this week, to re-set high service pump number two at the Water Treatment Plant. At the same time, they will pull high service pump number three so that this pump can be rebuilt. Once well number three is finished, all three of the high service pumps at the water treatment facility will have been serviced and rebuilt.
  5. The open position for Fiscal Officer has been posted both internally and externally. The job posting was placed in Hometown Opportunity, Ohio Means Jobs, Linked-In, Monster.com, and on the Ohio Municipal League and AMP’s website along with the village’s website and social media feeds.
  6. May 1st was the due date for residents to let the village know if they are doing the repairs to their sidewalks themselves or if they elect the village to do so. We are in the process of putting together a list of all those who are doing the sidewalk’s themselves. They have until July 11th to repair the sidewalks, if they are not done by that time, the village will hire a contractor to do the work.
