An address change is in the works for one Lisbon property.
Marc Mohn has requested an address change for his property. Formerly the Sutliff Generator Shop, the location was given the address of 112 S. Penn St. Mohn would like the address changed to 502 W. South St.
Siggins said that when the building was initially built, the door was placed on the longer width of the building, which was considered the front, so Mohn has limited backyard space for the solar array he wants to install.
City council members raised questions about how the change would align with other nearby properties, and Siggins said there is only one other address on South Penn Street, with all others considered West South Street properties.
The council unanimously approved the address change, saying it would better align with other neighborhood addresses.
Water billing rates:
Another item of note is the changing water and sewage billing rates coming this summer. The city of Lisbon will repeal the 2003 Code of Ordinances in favor of adopting the new billing policies of Ordinance No. 01-2025. Effective July 1, 2025, the first 1,000 gallons of use will be billed at $14.09, with each additional 1,000 gallons billed at $7.27.
Beginning July 1, 2026, and continuing until June 30, 2030, water service charges will increase by 3% annually. If, in any given year, the estimated fiscal rate increase exceeds 25%, the rate increase will be suspended.
The new billing rates for water and sewage were confirmed by all members of the council.
