The Boardman Township Trustees will be conducting their annual Leaf Pick-Up Program beginning Monday, October 30, 2023, and ending Friday, November 17, 2023.  The 2023 Program will follow the same schedule for leaf pick-up as it has in the past.  Please check the Boardman Township website for a complete list of pick-up days for each road.

Leaves are to be placed in recyclable brown paper bags and brought to the curb for pick up by the Township Road Department the night before your scheduled pick-up day. The paper bags are available for purchase at local retail stores.

Leaf bags that are heavy will not be picked up.  If you have a hard time lifting the bags, we will have a hard time lifting the bags up into our trucks.   Also, bags with acorns, sticks, dog waste, and grass clipping will not be picked up.

Be advised that due to the Veteran’s Day Holiday, no leaves will be picked up on Friday, November 10^th but will be picked up on Thursday, November 9^th.

 If you have any questions, please contact the Boardman Township Road Department at 330-726-4190.

The next Board meeting is scheduled for Monday, October 23 at 5:30 p.m.

The Boardman Township Board of Trustees will hold a regular board meeting Monday, September 25, 2023, at 5:30 PM.

Boardman Township officials are pleased to announce that they have established a 12-month fixed rate of $3.96 per Mcf for natural gas for program members.  The new rate will run through the October 2024 billing cycle.  Residents and small commercial customers can expect a letter from IGS Energy to arrive on the week of September 18th.  The letter will explain the rate, terms, and conditions of the offer. The natural gas program was approved by voters in May 2009 and is available for residents and small businesses in the Township.

Township Administrator Jason Loree said, “We are pleased to make this rate available for our residents and small businesses.  The fixed rate will give them price protection and budget stability for the next year. As before, our program has no early termination fee.”

Eric Burns, Director of Aggregation of Independent Energy Consultants, said, “Residents and businesses should carefully read their letter from IGS Energy.  Residents who are currently participating in the program will receive an “opt-out”, and do not need to take any action to remain in the program.  Residents who have not chosen a supplier and receive their gas supply from Dominion Energy Ohio will also receive an “opt-out” letter.  If they wish to be added to the program, they should simply do nothing and they will automatically receive the new rate.”

We would like to remind you that the aggregation program is simply another option for you to consider, and it is important that you make yourself aware of the other options available to you, specifically:

• The Public Utility Commission of Ohio provides a list of other publicly available offers on their website, energychoice.ohio.gov. Anyone considering those supply offers should be aware of any early termination penalties, fixed monthly charges, or automatic renewal provisions that can quickly offset any perceived savings.  Our program includes none of the above.
• The utility’s supply rate the Standard Choice Offer (SCO) is a variable rate option. It follows monthly market conditions and trends up and down throughout the year.

Again, we would like to remind people that the program is simply another option for our residents and small businesses to consider in their efforts to manage their energy costs.
