- Roger Gordon

Paris

The Paris Township Trustees are in the process of looking into joining a possible combined fire district that would include Charlestown, Palmyra, Deerfield and Edinburg.

“There’s a long way to go yet,” township Co-Chair Dave Kemble said. “I think the next thing that will come out of this is trying to find the money for an exploratory committee.”

Deerfield

The Deerfield Township Trustees voted to put a replacement levy on the November ballot for the township’s fire department.

Edinburg

Per a request by the Edinburg Ohio Historical Society, the township trustees recently applied for a grant from the State of Ohio that would pay for the repair of approximately 20-30 headstones at Edinburg Township Cemetery.
