Every year some street signs need replacing due to weathering, accidents, or theft.

Here are several that will be put up soon by village employees.

The street named High is the stolen most often, for some reason. The new signs are larger and more reflective. Ada has more than the usual number of visitors due to the university, festivals, and sports events at two stadiums. (Monty Siekerman photo)
