Ontario City Council has passed an emergency resolution to apply for a five-year, zero-interest loan from the Ohio EPA for constructing a wastewater treatment plant. This initiative includes a land agreement for 72 acres on North Home Road, with land being donated to the city.
A feasibility study is required to determine if Ontario can establish its own facility, which could lead to detachment from Mansfield's services, currently contracted through 2031. If the study is not favorable, the land agreement will be voided.
Additionally, the city will conduct smoke testing to assess inflow and infiltration issues. Past efforts to develop a wastewater project were made in 1976 and again in 2018. The council also authorized a safety improvement study for local roads, funded primarily by a grant.
