Little Ottawa River Project

Public Information Meeting will be held on April 11, 2007 at 2:00 PM at the Allen County Fairgrounds Youth Building.

The Allen Soil and Water Conservation District received an application for assistance to make drainage improvements to the LITTLE OTTAWA RIVER on January 10, 2007.

The proposed project is to make improvements to the LITTLE OTTAWA RIVER by removing obstructions, logjams and debris.  It is very similar to the Stream Enhancement Project currently being completed on the Ottawa River , which is the outlet for the Little Ottawa River.

The proposed work is to start at Dixie Highway and go west and north along the Little Ottawa River to its outlet into the Ottawa River just north of Fort Amanda Road .  The Joint Board of Supervisors of the Allen and Auglaize Soil and Water Districts will hold a VIEWING and PRELIMINARY HEARING on the proposal on WEDNESDAY, APRIL 11, 2007 at 2:00 PM at the Youth Activities Building on the Allen County Fairgrounds, located on SR 309, east of Lima , Ohio .
