PAULDING – A nuisance animal complaint, personnel matters and a loan refinance that could save more than $1 million were discussion items at Paulding Village Council’s regular meeting Monday, March 15.
Resident Thomas Carlisle asked if the village can do anything about cats creating a nuisance and damaging his property in Emerald Acres. Some felines are pets and some are feral.
