Central Sewer Update: Residents of North Hague Avenue - as you
may know, your area was defined as one of eight areas in Franklin Township
that were considered "blighted" for the purposes of illicit
discharge of sewage. This designation has required the County to seek grants
to find money to perform the Central Sewer work. We are in the process of
wrapping up the Brown Road East project and the Mon-e-bak
project. Our Eureka Park area is slated to be completed in fall of
2012/spring of 2013. This will leave Hague Avenue as the last remaining
project of the initial list. Steve Renner, our County Sanitary Engineer, is
hoping to have engineering work complete on this project in 2015, but at this
time, there is no funding available to do the work. Also understand that
there will be other areas in our Township that will be considered for Central
Sewer at a later date once all reports being created by Public Health have
been gathered and the areas ranked. Steve Renner stated that the easiest way
to get your questions answered is to follow his departmental website at: http://www.franklincountyohio.gov/commissioners/seng/water_quality_projects.cfm ·
