The Newark City Council voted 9-1 in favor of joining the Licking County, Heath City, and Pataskala City health districts in the formation of a combined general health district. The merger will final become a reality after nearly 60 years of on and off attempts that have all fallen short. The real work begins now, joining the employees into a cohesive, integrated, unit. I am sure that the Newark Health Dept. and Licking County Health Dept. staff will come together with only minor growing pains.
Thanks to all the people who have helped obtain this historic opportunity to improve public health services in Licking County.
