Maumee citizens attempt to put sewer issue before the voters
A Maumee resident has notified city officials of her intention to place a referendum on the November ballot to repeal Maumee’s sewer inspection and remediation ordinance. A veteran Lucas County Commissioner, meanwhile, called on the city’s leaders to hold off on enforcing the controversial ordinance so other solutions to Maumee’s sewage management can be explored.
