John (municipal administrator) said Energy Harbor is the current supplier and Toledo Edison handles electric distribution. NOAC, a coalition of 15 communities including Waterville, is reviewing proposals and staff said the coalition indicated a possible 12-month renewal term. Based on preliminary proposal pricing NOAC provided, staff said the renewal could reduce residential bills by about $9 per month and small commercial bills by about $18 per month.

John said residents will receive opt-out information if the coalition recommends renewal; customers who do not wish to participate must follow the opt-out instructions in the mailed notice. John also told councilors that Mayor Pedro is working to bring the Lucas County Auditor’s staff to Waterville for a resident information session about property valuation increases. A tentative date discussed in the transcript was March 26 for an event from noon to 7 p.m., but the date had not been confirmed at the meeting.

No council motion or vote was required for the staff report items; they were informational updates and next steps were described for outreach and scheduling.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","City of Waterville Ohio Live Stream","oneSentenceSummary","City staff said the municipal electric aggregation contract expires in May 2025 and that the Northwest Ohio Aggregation Coalition has sought proposals for a 12-month renewal that could yield modest monthly savings; the Lucas County auditor is tentatively scheduled to meet with residents in Waterville in March.","taxTitle","City of Waterville, Lucas County, Ohio","taxId",72364,"location","Ohio","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":77,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":78,"_41":79,"_43":80,"_45":81,"_47":82,"_49":83,"_51":84,"_53":85,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":86,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":87,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6341816,"Council approves transfers, two police vehicle purchases and related equipment agreements",92,1100000,1192000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2256369-8a35d5a184667e191b9315c71245aba9&start=1100&end=1192","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2256369-8a35d5a184667e191b9315c71245aba9/thumbnail_1100000.jpg","/articles/6341816/Ohio/Council-approves-transfers-two-police-vehicle-purchases-and-related-equipment-agreements","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6341816-35a5f019406a8cfbb88bf9d0ba34c375/orig.mp4?Expires=1771058021&Signature=f04wjgLZUPko9w-c6JjByHgcqQoAy2yl3LOO~wuJX8lYB29n52bBGCnbVjueFEqL5swFbPu599Qs4pzeEUoOzCxWTApPJzZtvNgRT9U3g-CBP3uI8KY6KPYb6AgPvLVcwV4tKxR9SxSiUQUVVPjiyPRrwAptkg88MbRAJrmSIwhrtg1saBRAoge6DgQer2apD6airZBLpAFgyJNnu1LQUSFplQPiNcIWAlFRucXeDXdP68Q24lJggUIj9MyB5qYsG1mfX7oLVb04OXurKgMqGn8F7Tpc0fYkRcoHD-s-6cZP1irgf8duT5KUcyQuCNb~AoK0B075Hg555h0H9zsg4A__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","City of Waterville councilors approved multiple administrative resolutions in a grouped set of votes, including routine fund transfers and purchases of police vehicles and accessories.

Resolution 0525 authorized transfers from the General Fund to several restricted funds consistent with the 2025 appropriation ordinance (transcript lists transfers from the general fund 100 to the parks and green space fund 225, the fire levy fund, the 5-year capital fund, and the street construction maintenance and repair fund). John (municipal administrator) said the transfers implement previously approved budget appropriations.

Resolution 0625 authorizes the municipal administrator to contract to purchase two 2025 Ford utility police interceptors. The transcript first references \"Brandy's Ford\" and later refers to \"Brown East Ford in Toledo;\" the council record does not resolve that vendor-name discrepancy. Staff said the purchase includes vehicle outfitting items (light bars, sirens, computer trays) and that older police vehicles will be reassigned to fire and public works departments.

Resolution 0725 authorized an agreement with Buckeye (transcript: \"Buckeye Engi Emergency\") for purchase of police vehicle equipment; staff and council noted Buckeye operates locally. Council members moved and seconded the motions and approved the items in a single or sequential floor vote.

These measures were presented as routine procurement and budget-implementing actions and were approved on the council floor with no substantive debate recorded in the meeting transcript.","Council adopted routine financial transfers and authorized purchase of two police vehicles and vehicle equipment; vendor names in the transcript were inconsistent and are noted as recorded.",{"_33":89,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":90,"_41":91,"_43":92,"_45":93,"_47":94,"_49":95,"_51":96,"_53":97,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":98,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":99,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6341821,"Waterville approves $57,108 change order for 2024 paving program",137,1501000,1638000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2256369-8a35d5a184667e191b9315c71245aba9&start=1501&end=1638","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2256369-8a35d5a184667e191b9315c71245aba9/thumbnail_1501000.jpg","/articles/6341821/Ohio/Waterville-approves-57108-change-order-for-2024-paving-program","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6341821-9f1fe0ef72f9f8ed9fa86de57d85708c/orig.mp4?Expires=1771058021&Signature=IKpUoRKHWSCpd7wR-kVVmxebTGpVcHNTlT7lQWwrGX3oeNOlIzZGsK1nxItJADExVV7RXjRR4DCHDLYvQHSQ~T~UwN11hxxT~gQbCAK9xRXVJnnxBOjcqlmqsiBiscXcZ0KHKPreOpXl1EDCzyLI2-~QH-a8hnnXu8gNnWkrIPd8nxKpz0R0-Cotq7UfbtNuMm7j66TxeAgDASnIsO7M7BDqu~8r5CHRJ0biVDds6-Ugrqp12cO57-vgV3c2TXagh3hx6Ee6YLO89XMpc1C6y~q0CkAneUHfVgJN06Un7v5MU7qWk8N12EDa4c74yW3QIR~l7sHoknYLKksKqxKOLg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The City of Waterville council approved Resolution 0925 to authorize change order number 1 and pay $57,108.22 to Get Us Paving & Excavating for the 2024 city paving program.

John (municipal administrator) told the council that roughly 80% of the increase stemmed from unexpectedly deteriorated storm infrastructure that required resetting catch basins. The change order also covered additional work behind a block of buildings where staff widened alley radii and removed and reinstalled ADA ramps.

John said staff coordinated with adjacent property owners on the alley work and that neighbors would reimburse the city for a portion of the cost; the transcript does not provide the full reimbursement figure. The city’s public works staff also performed winter street-cleaning and related maintenance work, which council members thanked publicly.

Councilors moved, seconded and approved the change order authorizing payment to the contractor. The resolution formalizes additional contract payment required to complete repairs and the alley improvements.","Council approved change order No. 1 and payment of $57,108.22 to Get Us Paving & Excavating to cover additional storm and alley work discovered during the 2024 paving program.",{"_33":101,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":102,"_41":103,"_43":104,"_45":105,"_47":106,"_49":107,"_51":108,"_53":109,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":110,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":111,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6341826,"Waterville council adopts higher ambulance fees, splits ALS charges",173,1326000,1499000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2256369-8a35d5a184667e191b9315c71245aba9&start=1326&end=1499","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2256369-8a35d5a184667e191b9315c71245aba9/thumbnail_1326000.jpg","/articles/6341826/Ohio/Waterville-council-adopts-higher-ambulance-fees-splits-ALS-charges","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6341826-df59ea3f3f4e6086e8d2677bdb3fe2e1/orig.mp4?Expires=1771058021&Signature=S8-XKChcz3UEDpaBsCFvpBtZe6a-768Te72aMIB-PrN~LQMNCcZyX48PJghbqNZvIztNkY5dCCG1I9LD8iPtIWuGS2-pBdGM3OZ8YohHBxF5dkmXC1yJ5thIzLHnhs5amj18rMXtEIgsOkjrWaaM24pFc78p~hwCwrRhebkibSow~GyUlY2PWR44GXCunYYoUBQXAc~y~3g4Oyw9Z6OuKwVqKhMWqGKtHZG05ubW9Ho0LeVRfaz5vf87JXmhHEsNWHjU2cvHfUa4X1W1GoR0XrM3Bv7LaGwJio0rIGkSgb7F~3mph7ktTUXjE-mZuh-ZvDqF-JbT7mc7Zz2muOqDZg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The City of Waterville council approved Resolution 0825, which raises the city's ambulance transport charges and bifurcates advanced life support billing into two tiers.

John (municipal administrator) presented the proposed fee changes. He said the city compared local charges and found Waterville’s current rates among the lowest, and recommended increases to align with neighboring communities. Under the proposal, the basic life support (BLS) transport charge would increase from $550 plus $10 per mile to $900 plus $25 per mile.

Staff also proposed restructuring the advanced life support (ALS) rate into ALS 1 and ALS 2 categories to better reflect differing levels of service. John stated the proposal would set ALS 1 at $1,250; the transcript does not provide a final figure for ALS 2.

A council member asked who submits ambulance charges for reimbursement, and John replied the city processes the charges but uses a contracted billing company to pursue reimbursements from Medicare and insurers.

The council moved, seconded and approved the resolution on the council floor. The action updates the city’s fee ordinance to the new rates and restructuring; staff will continue to use the billing contractor to submit claims and collect reimbursement.","Council approved Resolution 0825 to raise basic life support (BLS) transport fees and to restructure advanced life support (ALS) billing into ALS 1 and ALS 2 categories; staff said collections are handled by a billing company.",{"_33":113,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":114,"_41":115,"_43":116,"_45":117,"_47":118,"_49":119,"_51":120,"_53":121,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":122,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":123,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6341831,"Waterville council approves replat to create River Bend Flex Industrial Park",412,687000,1099000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2256369-8a35d5a184667e191b9315c71245aba9&start=687&end=1099","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2256369-8a35d5a184667e191b9315c71245aba9/thumbnail_687000.jpg","/articles/6341831/Ohio/Waterville-council-approves-replat-to-create-River-Bend-Flex-Industrial-Park","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6341831-9d56bc8e091575f238d0987defdea136/orig.mp4?Expires=1771058021&Signature=obhV8rAat4wN~brjj5NVge1KmOo4X-HTEViS7HFID9clJaGvM60evTsne9ji9M~4oup-pIPGOlVVoTSHdtptQpxYcO9A4HTegnYyXosNGZf1K8ZUZaP-Pc59jBA9Hqb5NDsPZlsjJezLVLzOD-LFxpR-SKRKVzhSyloMG6G6cNG2KFXa6hbJrVvSQEYZYy7DIA75Iy94YecTrNgS8M0ulQ1lFNgNFORiG2oDYHbaJeChBFPfpzAiZ9pOu2BjcVLlcZUTMmykvSjv~HaR9jmaeDlFPhqubtdsGhQSj1Am1fx2mFSdesro7Otx4eQegPHb8lCTVKs9RN54ta2vKrBHMg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","City of Waterville councilors voted to approve a replat of the Fallen Timbers Business Park, renaming it the River Bend Flex Industrial Park and creating seven lots ranging from under 1 acre to about 6.5 acres.

John (municipal administrator) told the council the property is in the Planned Business Park District and that the replat does not request any zoning changes, development standards or deed restriction revisions. He said the planning commission reviewed the application in December and recommended approval.

Brandon Rakoff, an attorney representing the prospective buyer, said the purchaser plans to develop the park over the coming years. \"The primary use of the park is probably going to be industrial flex space,\" Rakoff said. He told the council the development team kept commercial options toward Dutch Road and industrial uses along Schacht Road, and that the seller, Thomas Duvall of Duvall Woodworking, agreed to the replat ahead of an eventual sale.

Council members asked about lot sizes and design. Mister Rosick (Council member) asked whether creating smaller lots would be easier for future buyers; Rakoff explained two constraints that shaped the layout: a Toledo Edison easement that limits usable land and the seller’s request to remove his lot from the business park, which reduced available area near Dutch Road. Rakoff said the design leaves options for future replatting or lot splits if market demand requires it.

The council moved and seconded the resolution (mover: Mister Wagner; seconder: Mister Rosick) and approved it on the council floor. Staff said the city’s engineer reviewed the plat and found it acceptable to local planning requirements.

The resolution is procedural in nature: it reconfigures lot lines and a name change for the park rather than approving a specific site plan or new public improvements.","Council approved Resolution 0425 to replat the Fallen Timbers Business Park, creating seven lots as the River Bend Flex Industrial Park; applicant said lots aimed at industrial flex space and no zoning change was requested.","actionData","errors"]
