Contract Awarded For Dalzell Ditch Work

11/22/17 – 5:08 A.M.

The Hancock County Commissioners officially awarded a contract to a company from Vickery, Ohio to improve the Dalzell Ditch Tuesday. Great Lakes Demolition bid a little more than $455,000 to win the contract. The only other bid came from Helms and Sons Excavating in Findlay. It was a little more than $37,000 over the low bid.

The commissioners expect the work to start this year.

The ditch runs through residential neighborhoods in northwestern Findlay. Residents say it causes flooding in the area.
