BREAKING: City of Fostoria Agreed to Take WinWaste Leachate Without Test Results

FOSTORIA – During Fostoria City Council Meeting 2-4-25 Mayor Don Mennel told the public they have accepeted Win Waste’s leachate spill. The 30 second ramble included informing voters that “we physically examined it”.

Upon furhter followup I have uncovered that test results for the liquid waste was not tested.

This morning, we received an email response to a public records request from the city’s law director. The email included… “After consulting with our various departments, I have learned that we do not have testing results yet, nor have we received any payments yet.”

After learning this information it is apparent that the City of Fostoria & Mayor Mennel did not act in the best faith of Fostorians, further reducing trust in current leadership.

The planned method of transport of the leachate & storm water is still unconfirmed.

I encourage anyone concerned about this matter to speak at the next City Council Meeting next Tuesday February 18th, 2025 .
