Совет деревни Плимут утвердил продление сбора на кладбище и нанял нового спасателя для бассейна

PLYMOUTH – A renewal of funding for the Plymouth Village cemetery was front and center at Tuesday’s village council meeting. Council unanimously approved placing the renewal of a 1-mill levy on the Nov. 3 ballot, which funds operations at the Greenlawn Cemetery at the intersection of Riggs and Bucyrus streets. The proposal would renew the tax for five years and will continue to cost the owner of a $100,000 home about $35 annually. Construction: Gas station concerns and the bridge replacement During public comment, concern was expressed over the construction of a new gas station replacing the Dollar General at 105 Donnenwirth Drive. The lot is close enough to a house that questions regarding ADA standards came up. The station is speculated to be a Valero station, and the land purchase was made May 29 for $462,500. Changes in construction plans must be made due to its proximity to the home if it is to remain residential, due to its proximity, according to ADA guidelines. Another project discussed is the $3.3 million replacement for the West Broadway Street/Baseline Road bridge, construction of which is scheduled this summer. A tentative start date is still up in the air. But a pre-construction meeting will take place Aug. 4. Rietschlin Construction in Crestline will construct the bridge, a contract awarded by the Ohio Department of Transportation. A record pool day and a new lifeguard The Plymouth pool at 200 Sandusky St. had a record day Sunday, seeing 258 attendees. It’s fitting, then, that council on Tuesday confirmed the hiring of a new lifeguard, Madalynn Mahl, for the 2026 season. Mahl’s hiring brings the Plymouth pool staff to five employees. Council is next scheduled to meet July 28 at 7 p.m.
