Ada's latest news

At its April 7 regular meeting, Ada Council approved a temporary moratorium on establishing data centers or cryptocurrency mining centers in the Village. The legislation was introduced as a 12-month moratorium, which was subsequently modified to create a 6-month restriction.

Village Administrator Amanda Sears said she does not favor the moratorium at this time. She noted that from an economic development standpoint, a moratorium would show that Ada is not a welcoming or business-friendly community. 

On Wednesday, April 8, Jim Pifer, President of the Ada Lions Club and Bill Keller,  PDG Director, presented Fred Reichert with his 45-year pin of membership in the Ada Lions Club.

Club meetings are on the 2nd and 4th Wednesdays at 6:15 p.m. at Center on Central.
