Water was on the minds of council members on Tuesday night, as Ada's village council considered a proposal to weatherproof the exterior facade of the Municipal Building at 115 W. Buckeye St. and a request by a farmer's father to help him pay for field drainage improvements that he says benefits the village.
The council approved a proposal by Trisco Systems to weatherproof the brick building that houses the village's administrative offices and its council chamber.

A set-back for the Ada Police, storm sewer projects, and surprising bids for repainting the water tower were topics at Tuesday’s village council meeting in Ada.
In his report to councilors and mayor, Chief Michael Harnishfeger announced that a recent hire to the police department is leaving.
"Ryan Schroeder, our full time officer that we hired in July or August. he’s midway in our probation, and he’s leaving us,” said Chief Harnishfeger with a grimace. “He’s going to go back to selling cars.”
He said he hated the process of finding and training a new officer.
