Hancock County Commissioners held a conference call with other counties in the Blanchard River Watershed to discuss a river cleaning project. Commissioner Tim Bechtol explained that the group voted to see what it will cost.
Bechtol explained that there is about $88,000 in funding available but the project estimate came in around $93,000.
The assessment will be charged to every parcel in the watershed with a minimum of $2. Once the bids come in the counties will convene again to discuss further options.
