It’s Spring, so time for all returning to Kelleys Island to say “HI”

KILA is hosting a welcome back pot luck on Saturday May 16th at the VFW pavilion from 5-7 pm. EVERYBODY Welcome

The Village held a public meeting at the town hall on October 15th to share information about the proposed sewer project. Following is the presentation and meeting notes (questions & answers) fior that meeting. For more information, please see the village website: https://kelleysisland.us/departments-2/water-sewer-trash/

October 15, 2025 at 10:00 AM At Town Hall on Division Street

Please see the attached letter from the Ohio EPA regarding a facility plan for a proposed wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) to serve the Village of Kelleys Island.

KILA will host a candidates’ forum on Saturday September 20th at 1:00 PM at the Estes School gymnasium.

On the November ballot, seven candidates will run for four seats on Village Council. There will also be two tax levy proposals; one for EMS and another for village general funds. There will also be candidates running for the KI School Board.

This is a “must attend” for all KI residents and especially registered voters. It’s your chance to hear, first hand, from the council candidates.

On Saturday September 20, KILA will hold the annual members meeting at 10:00am at the school.  As part of this meeting we will vote on recent bylaw changes the current board is proposing.  A copy of those proposed changes is attached with the updates highlighted in red.  Everyone will be given an opportunity to comment on these proposed changes as well as submit additional revisions before we vote whether or not to adopt them.
Additionally, we will be holding elections for several board positions. If you would like to be considered for a position on the board, please notify Chris Kipfer (chris.k@kila.rocks) or Jennifer Pieratt (jennifer@kila.rocks) prior to the meeting and if possible plan to attend in person on the 20th.
