The 24th annual Bluffton Area Chamber of Commerce Blaze of Lights is Saturday, Nov. 27! Here is the up-to-the-minute Blaze information for the remainder of today.

Entertainment downtown:

Pandora council is considering purchase of a flow meter, estimated to cost $12,147 (plus $139 alignment fee), which is required by the Ohio EPA. The requirement is so that the village will be on a controlled discharge system. The matter was discussed at the Nov. 9 council meeting.

The flow meter will be installed in an existing manhole at the effluent site of the village lagoon system.

In other action, council approved the hiring of David Meyer as an as-needed assistant to Marvin Steiner with hydrant flushing.

The specific problem centers on mail payments from customers paying online. Those payments, at no fault of the utility customers, are notoriously late from the online payment source.

Here's a creative plate. The Icon spotted it on North Main Street.
