MEDIA RELEASE__Whether a winter storm leaves two inches or two feet of snow, the aftermath can bring challenges, especially if power outages occur. The Village of Ada encourages residents to take the following steps to safely dig out, protect property and stay warm during recovery.
Clear Snow Safely
When it is safe to do so, begin clearing snow around your home and vehicles as soon as possible. Fresh snow is lighter and easier to remove than snow that has settled and become compacted.
The Beatitudes Community Center, 210 N Main St., has announced the addition of a new Assistant Director, Stephanie Van Atta.
Van Atta notes, "I bring a strong passion for community involvement and have worked in public fields for most of my adult life, always focused on serving others. My goal is to see the people of Ada and Hardin County living fulfilling lives enriched by fellowship and connection.
Inclement weather and hazardous driving conditions are affecting portions of the Rumpke service region. Please note that road conditions may prevent collection in some neighborhoods.
