During Mayor Smith's one-on-one interactions with residents and city officials today, topics included vacant homes and the problem of speeders.

The goal is to hear these concerns and do something about them.

“One important thing that's happening right now with the city of Lima is that we have our community survey out to form our five-year action plan. It is available online at the city of Lima's website, which is limaohio.gov, and again, it's an opportunity to provide input, because we plan based on what we hear from residents, and so we want residents to fill out that survey so that we can plan the next five years, added Smith.
