What is the deal with our water quality? Most days the Ottawa water quality is much softer, though not very tasty, compared to the old Bluffton water.

But we have had repeated periods of very rusty water, making our toilets nasty and laundry a nightmare.

Why is this happening and will it ever end? If it is related to repair work, can the Village notify residents?

What is a Value Added Tax, commonly called VAT? These are taxes that we will be facing because of all the spending of our government. It is considered a consumption tax. It is a complicated tax but simply put, each stage or process a tax is added.

How is the census sent out? Areas are divided into sections and each section is sent the census form at a different time. In Bluffton there are several different sections and not all sections have received the form.

It you haven't received it, don't panic. It should be coming. Please complete and send back as soon as possible.
Sincerely,
Nancy L. Benroth
Assistant Village Administrator
