A special council meeting of the Bluffton council on Thursday, July 25, at 8 p.m. on the third floor of the Town Hall, according to Jesse Blackburn, village administrator.
The purpose of the meeting is to discuss personnel.
Twenty streets in Bluffton qualify for permissive tax money according to Brion E. Rhodes, Allen County engineer. The list is at the bottom of this story.
Rhodes sent a letter to the village earlier this year, which was part of a recent council packet. The letter notified the village that as of Dec. 31, 2017, $50,774 was available for street work.
The village brings in approximately $1,425 per month in permissive tax money. That money is posted by the county auditor on a monthly basis.
The 6th annual Bluffton/Pandora National Night Out is Tuesday, Aug. 6. The evening includes food and snacks, plenty of give-a-ways, fire truck displays and rides, face painting, bounce houses, live music.
The Icon spotted this plate - guess where - on a 1970 Cadillac. It was a display plate in the rear window of the vehicle on display at the Ada cruise in on Saturday. Owner is Cheryl Geer of Ada. A very beautiful vehicle.
The following lane changes are planned next week on Interstate 75 as it passes around Findlay.
Interstate 75 northbound between the county Road 313 overpass and U.S. 68/state Route 15 will be shifted into a contraflow pattern overnight Tuesday, July 23, into the early morning hours of Wednesday, July 24.
When the shift is complete, two 11-foot lanes of northbound traffic will travel on the southbound side of highway in that area, next to the two lanes of southbound traffic, to allow construction activities to begin on the northbound side of the highway.
