LORDSTOWN Village Council on Monday approved an agreement with the Trumbull County commissioners for providing sewer services for the Ultium Cells LLC battery production plant.
The village also approved the purchase of 4.4 acres off state Route 45 for $169,000 for an additional elevated water tower, which not only will provide water for the village but also to the battery plant.
“The additional water tank will not only help enhance our current system but also will provide a backup for GM for a few days in case there was an issue with the water,” Mayor Arno Hill said.
Hill said there is already a village water tank in the area where the new elevated tank will be placed. He said a Warren city water tank also is nearby and another village tank is on Bailey Road.
