Vandalia, Riverside and Harrison Township to the rescue:
There has been a bright spot recently with this whole Dayton Well Field Protection Area fiasco. Three progressive and growing municipalities understand the problems this situation has created for local businesses. These three municipalities 'get it' and are doing the right thing!
They understand that this ordinance does little to protect the aquifer and I am pleased to announce that the City of Vandalia, the City of Riverside and Harrison Township have all recently allowed local companies (including ours) to add jobs and grow their companies right here in the Dayton Region!
How did they do it? They did it by allowing companies to add to their existing TMDI (Total Maximum Daily Inventory) that was incorrectly and, in my opinion, surreptitiously imposed on every property. These three municipalities understand the restrictive nature of the ordinance and are willing to work with their businesses and not against them.
Congratulations you three, you did the right thing!
I will conclude this series by offering some specific solutions to this issue and make a call to action!
LOVE this series!
ReplyDeleteI have been dealing with city of Dayton for many years, this water issue is just one of the issues the city has. Like I commented yesterday, this is just one more reason why we should get rid of the city of Dayton government and have one county / regional government.
