The Village of Bluffton’s boundaries are set to expand toward the northwest.
On Monday the council will act on a resolution to accept a parcel of Bluffton University property into the village through annexation.
The parcel is part of what is known as the university’s nature preserve on Augsburger Road. The university intends to build a classroom a portion of the preserve that is not currently in the village.
The annexation will allow the university to pay the inside rates for water and sewer.
