Commissioner Henry announced that a public hearing is scheduled for 9 a.m. Wednesday, Dec. 10, before the Delaware County Drainage Board to consider reconstruction of Hogg Creek, a regulated drain.

Henry (S4) asked for comments and questions from anyone interested in the project. Members noted the drain is in Salem Township near Middletown, described as off 700 East north of State Road 32 on the west side of the road, and emphasized the project’s proximity to the road. One member said the reconstruction will help protect the county road and suggested board representation at the hearing to answer public questions.

The hearing is scheduled to occur at the start of the Drainage Board meeting. Board members did not discuss engineering plans or costs during this meeting; the public hearing notice is the primary step for comments and formal review.
