Northwood council votes against pipeline
Northwood is the latest Wood County community to oppose a pipeline project planned to cross its borders.

City Council voted unanimously earlier this month  to pass a resolution formally contesting the Oregon
Lateral Gas Pipeline, a 22-mile line that will wind through much of northern Wood County.
The resolution states that the pipeline would threaten residents and businesses with the threat of leaks
and ruptures, with the potential to affect agricultural yields, impact heavily wooded areas and
potentially damage wells, septic systems and overall property values.
The measure, which was to be forwarded to state and federal representatives, suggests that North Coast
Gas Transmission should find an alternate location for the pipeline, which received route approval from
the Ohio Power Siting Board in January.
Ohio 281 open
The Ohio Department of Transportation has announced that Ohio 281, between Ohio 25 and Solether Road, is
now open. The bridge replacement project in the area is complete.
