Printed copies of frequently asked questions and project information are now available for public pickup at the Van Wert Area Economic Development Office, 140 E. Main St., and at Brumback Library, 215 W. Main St. These materials are being made available following requests from local council members and residents who prefer to review information in a printed format. Community members with additional questions are encouraged to contact the VWAEDC office directly at 419.238.2999 or info@vanwerted.com.

The Van Wert Area Economic Development Corporation, in partnership with Thor Equities, has also launched an online resource to provide clear, factual information about the project. The website, www.vanwertohiodatacenter.com, includes frequently asked questions, fact vs. fiction explanations, and an option to connect directly with local experts.

“Our goal is to make sure everyone in our community has access to accurate information in a format that works best for them,” said Brent Stevens, Executive Director of VWAEDC. “We are committed to transparency and open communication as conversations around this project continue.”
