The Northwestern Water & Sewer District (formerly the Wood County Regional Water and Sewer District) was formed in 1993 to provide water and sewer services to rural areas and small municipalities in Wood County. On January 1, 1994, The District officially began operations. The District has grown over the years through mergers. The District now serves over 20,000 customers in five counties (Wood, Sandusky, Henry, Hancock, and Lucas) with 75 employees. The District’s Board of Trustees consists of 10 members: three representing member municipalities, three representing member townships, three representing Wood County, and one board member representing customers in Henry County. The District operates from a facility on Middleton Pike that was built in 2002 and expanded in 2013. The District also operates 13 WaterShed vending machines that provide clean, affordable drinking water to the public. The District’s mission is to provide reliable, high-quality water and sewer services at a reasonable cost to its customers and communities.
