Seeking Candidates for Zoning Commission Board & Board of Zoning Appeals
We are proud to announce that Licking Township was recently awarded a grant through the Ohio Public Works Program Commission (OPWC) to partially fund the resurfacing of a portion of Fairmount Road. The project start date is 10/22/24 and must be completed by 06/01/25.
Earlier in 2024, Licking Township announced having been awarded a separate grant from OPWC for various roads in the Avondale neighborhood. That project is now complete.
Through the generous grants from OPWC over the past several years, our township has been able to complete more than $650,000.00 in road repaving projects.
Thank you OPWC!

Residents of Licking Township:
As we prepare for the upcoming holidays and colder weather, it is only natural to reflect on the previous year’s accomplishments and successes while looking forward to the new year and new beginnings.
We would like to take this opportunity to announce that Fire Chief Mike Wilson has announced his retirement effective 02/01/2025. We have been very fortunate to have had Chief Wilson serve as the leader of Licking Township Fire Company since 2001 and as a member of LTFC for over 29 years. His wisdom, practicality, fiscal stewardship, collaboration, courage, reliability, integrity, and unwavering love for this community and the men and women of LTFC is unparalleled.
And, while Chief Wilson leaves some pretty big boots to fill, we are pleased to announce that Assistant Fire Chief Weekly has been appointed to serve as Licking Township’s new Fire Chief. In order to ensure a smooth transition Assistant Chief Weekly will serve as co-chief alongside Chief Wilson beginning in 12/01/24 and will assume full duties on 02/01/25.
Congratulations to both Chief Wilson and to Assistant Chief Weekly on their respective accomplishments!
We would also like to wish each of you a safe and happy holiday season. Although the weather has been favorable so far, it’s only a matter of time before winter shows itself. Be assured that our salt bins are filled to capacity, snow removal and emergency vehicles have been prepped, and measures are in place to manage the white stuff so we can all enjoy the holiday travel & festivities safely!
Here are some reminders regarding our approach to managing the adverse conditions:
Please keep in mind that the safety of our personnel and equipment will be first priority due to weather conditions.
You can also review the priority list of intersections located on the Road Department Tab on the website to better understand the snow removal process in Licking Township.
As always, should you have any questions or concerns, please contact Trustee John Holman @ 740-404-4721; Trustee Dave Miller @ 740-404-4720; or Trustee John Cormican @ 740-899-6451.
Have a safe, healthy, and happy holiday season.
Sincerely,
John Holman, Chairman
