Civic issues
Topics getting the most attention in Perrysburg public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
E-bike and golf cart regulation
E-bikes have caused problems in parks this summer. The city has started an e-bike registration program, and a few bad actors have prompted complaints — including about overly bright new pickleball court lights at night.
2027 Fire Department Budget and Staffing
The fire budget is up 6.2% and focuses on replacing aging breathing equipment, ballistic vests and thermal cameras. The chief says the division is not properly staffed and requested three more firefighters — but those aren't in the 2027 numbers.
Everbridge emergency notification system
The city joined Wood County's Everbridge mass notification system as an emergency measure so officials can send alerts right away — Perrysburg currently has no system since the county dropped Code Red.
Police Division water-damage repair
A burst water pipe damaged the police station, and the city got two bids for the fix. The cheapest qualifying bid was $57,778.59, and insurance should cover all of it.
