We hope that citizens are able to use this website as a singular source of community information. Information will continually be updated as needed.

Mayor Schweller Declares State of Emergency

The Ohio Department of Health has set up a call center for anyone to call with questions regarding COVID-19. The call center is staffed seven days a week from 9am-8pm and can be reached at 1-833-4-ASK-ODH (1-833-427-5634).

Call center staff includes licensed nurses and infectious disease experts. They will be available to answer questions and provide accurate information about COVID-19, the risk to the public, and the state’s response.

Please do not call 9-1-1 or go to the emergency room if you are experiencing mild symptoms. If you are experiencing life-threatening symptoms or are having an emergency, please call 9-1-1 and tell dispatchers about your symptoms and any travel history or possible exposure. 

As information is rapidly changing, we encourage you to gain your information from credible resources. We do caution you to regularly take a break from the media as we are all constantly inundated with information.  A list of recommended resources are linked below:

Unfortunately, during times such as these, individuals try to take advantage of folks. With a lot of people working from home and relying on computers and checking updates on the situation, please be careful what you are clicking and opening. Phishing emails pertaining to the virus look very real and even appear to come from the Center for Disease Control. If you did not sign up for alerts, do not open these emails. 

Also, do not download the Johns Hopkins virus update map from any location other than the real John Hopkins website as it has been cloned and is being used to infect systems with malware. 

Please also be diligent in researching any group or organization that you are planning to give money to to help a various cause. 

Feel free to reach out to our Police Department if you have questions or have fallen victim to a scam.
