Summer is a great time to explore the art spread across the Ada community – especially for viewers unable to visit art galleries elsewhere in Ohio.

Public works employees will handle the annual procedure and here’s what village water customers need to know:
Work will begin in the northeast and southeast sections of the village. The work will be completed in a pattern moving from the center toward the outside of the village, and then in a clockwise rotation Mondays through Fridays from 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. until all hydrants are flushed.
