Life is good in Wadsworth. We have great schools, excellent city services, low taxes, and most of all, a community that cares about its residents' well being, both now and in the future. That's why we plan ahead - to ensure that we have the resources to keep life in Wadsworth great for generations to come.

One city resource that we must plan ahead for is water. The "Water Matters in Wadsworth" website was designed to put all information about how we get and conserve our water in one convenient place. We will update the site often, so come back any time. We're glad you're here and hope that the information we've compiled will help you better understand this complex issue. If you have further questions, please contact Chris Easton at 330-335-2777.
