Water Battle In HC

The City of Napoleon files two court actions in Henry County to stop the merger of the County Regional Water and Sewer District with the Northwestern Water and Sewer District. Earlier this year, the county district initiated a merger process with Northwestern, due to financial concerns, as well as long-term issues regarding personnel, while finding a more affordable water source. Northwestern has assumed operations of the district while the final merger was worked out. That process now moves into the court system.
