CELINA - Officials are eyeing more than 16 acres of land north of state Route 703 for potential water wells to replace Grand Lake as the city's drinking water source.

If an adequate supply of water is located underneath the 16.43-acre property, the farmland and wooded area could be purchased for $750,000 from John J. Bertke and James F. Lampert, according to a draft commercial lease provided by city law director George Moore. [More]
