The Village of Ada continues to apply for grant and loan funding for the reconstruction of the Waste Water Treatment Plant. Many of these grant applications require the Village to host public hearings.
These hearings allow citizens additional opportunities to learn more about the grant programs, the proposed projects, and ask questions. The Village has previously hosted public meetings on the WWTP project in September and November of 2012 and March of 2013.
The next public hearing will be held on Tuesday, April 23, at 7 p.m. The hearing will take place in the Ada Historic Depot, located on Central Avenue.

What classes are you taking this semester? Cole: Varsity Singers, Algebra III, American Government, English II College Prep, and Art I A and B.
Any activities outside of academics? Cole: I run track and play football. I’ll be a wide receiver in football next season. In track I run the 200, 400 and am on the 4 by 200 relay. My personal best in the 200 is 27.9 seconds and in the 400 1:10. Our relay was second at the Spencerville Relays.
