PUBLIC HEARING: A public hearing was held on March 31, 2010 in the Township offices regarding the Cuyahoga Valley National Park’s sewer system for the Boston Mills Historic District. Many questions were raised regarding the location of the system as well as the reasons for such a robust system. Those attending the hearing were told that the questions were not appropriate for the hearing and should be addressed at different venue.

LIBRARY LEVY: The Trustees passed a resolution in support of the Akron-Summit County library levy on the May ballot. The Peninsula Library receives $80,000 per year from this levy representing 18.6% of their budget. The Peninsula Library is a major part of our community and the Trustees urge you to support the levy so that they may continue to provide excellent services. Trustee Randy Bergdorf abstained from this resolution as he is the library’s director.

ROAD ASSISTANCE: The Township received funding from the Cuyahoga Valley National Park’s road assistance program for Hines Hill and Major Roads. The Major Road project is a cooperative effort with Richfield and Peninsula.

JOINT MEETING: There will be a joint meeting with Peninsula Village on May 10, 2010 at 7:00PM at the Peninsula Village hall to discuss cemetery funding and other mutual interests.

BICENTENNIAL COMMITTEE: The Bicentennial Committee continues to meet on the third Wednesday of each month at 6:30 in the Township meeting room. Anyone wishing to help is invited.
