Topics getting the most attention in North Ridgeville public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
Fortune & Dickson Ditch restoration funding
Council approved the city's $150,000 share of the county-led ditch project, which officials say has been budgeted for years and will relieve flooding on the south side.
Mills Creek flood control and $490K ODNR grant
Last week's storms downed trees, wires, and poles citywide. Cleanup continues with extra Republic Services bulk pickup, and the city logged 3.2 inches of rain in 24 hours — a 10-year storm event.
Storm Water Ordinance
North Ridgeville just passed a new storm water ordinance to fix problems flagged in a recent Ohio EPA audit, which could impact local drainage rules and development. If you're building or buying property, expect new rules to manage runoff better.
