JACQUELINE CHAPMAN Paid for by Chapman for Treasurer Campaign Committee, Roland Chapman, Treasurer, P.O. Box 449, Port Clinton, Ohio 43452. Post Continued From A-1 the committee approach the commissioners the part-time position to a full-time one. Everyone agreed. Until a decision is reached on the standing of the development director's position, Wehenkel said he will continue to work as the director, even past Dec.

31, if need be. "Just because my salary is cut does not mean I will cease working my economic development position," he said. Despite Wehenkel's claim sufficient time could not be devoted to the director's position, his update report indicated he has put much effort into it. In an evaluation of retention and expansion by local businesses, he found three businesses are considering expansion in the near future. In a survey in 1987, 25 of the 71 businesses had noted they were considering expansion in the next five years.

"Eighty percent of new jobs created come from existing industry," he said. Wehenkel said he was exploring funding possibilities for the businesses and the strings attached to the funding programs. There have also been a few inquiries made about Ottawa County for industrial relocation, he said. Some are from the smaller businesses, defined as those with 15 to 20 employees, rather than 100 or more. "Those are the ones Ottawa County should be trying to attract.

We're more equipped to handle the small industry rather than the larger industry," Wehenkel said. In any case, biggest wall facing the county, thine said, is that it does not have buildings available in the to square-foot range, which busi- Sewer Continued From A-1 is then multiplied by $2,900. So, a single family home, having an EDU of one, frontage of less than 60.99 feet (given a one rating), would pay a flat $2,900. Frey has a detailed chart on what other property owners would pay. The ceiling on the frontage multiplier is 1.87, for parcels larger than 120 feet wide.

Final assessments will be made at the project's end and users have 30 days to pay them. If not paid in full, assessments revert to one's taxes to be paid over 20 years at the 8 percent interest rate used for the bonds issued for financing the project. Board and county sanitary engineering department officials say the new sewer will end pollution of underground aquifers, pollution caused by seepage of sewage from malfuctioning residential systems. Studies have shown at least 48 package treatment plants process waste generated by businesses, trailer parks, marinas and condominiums. While most operate seasonally, most operate without trained operators, causing -treated sewage from these plants to pollute area surface waters.

The resolution points out that the area's rapid development calls for a centralized water system. When the county commissioners began this project, the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency had listed the project as No. 1 among unsewered areas since it was recognized as the worst identified sewer problem in Ohio. "I think we've got as much out of the EPA as we're going to get," Frey said about the $13.5 million the EPA has granted.

Corporation member John Kelley had pointed out infrastructure like roads and sewer er and water lines are a crucial factor. "We can't tell them we're going to put road in Kelley said. "Your competition does not allow you to wait for It is Wehenkel's opinion that some target analysis should be made in the effort to promote the area for business.

"We don't want to attract businesses that will compete with our existing industries," Wehenkel asserted. "We want ones that will complement them." Once facts on existing industries' raw material needs and production are gathered, letters can be sent to businesses that could work with the existing industries. hopes for more. "I've just finished some more paperwork for requests," Frey said. Farmer's Home Administration is helping out with costs with a $3 million loan.

Opfer noted that the county's request had been for $4 million. To date though, Frey said, FmHA officials told him only $3 million would be available. The loan's revenue bonds will be paid back with user charges, just like the $4.5 million general obligation bonds of the board. User fees are now cited as $27.09 per month and are subject to change upon the project's completion. Special assessments charged amount to about $14.4 million.

The assessing district includes all properties within 200 feet of the sewer route. Tap-in charges for affected properties will be $125 until the project is complete. The charge helps offset the board's expenses for tap inspection and permit processing. Tentative pricing has tap charges contributing $264,000 to project costs, so far. After project completion, the tap charge will be adjusted for future users to put toward debt repayment.
