Items From The Desk Of Mayor Larry Gwinner

Mayor Gwinner
As your Mayor I will be posting information from time to time on special events and all other information. I will also be updating the calendar monthly on meeting dates and events. I know it is important to everyone to be updated as to what is going on in our area.
Ramp Closure
The West Bound ramp that exits to Bay View will be closed for 14 days. This means if you are coming west from the Sandusky direction and you don’t exit before the Bay View exit you will have to drive all the way across the bridge to turn around.
Thank you
Village Garage Sales
Village Wide Garage Sales will always be the 2nd weekend of June, Friday Saturday and Sunday. This year they will be June 13th 14th and 15th of 2025.
Thank you
Levy
We would like to ask the Residents of the Village of Bay View to support the Police levy on May 6th, 2025 by voting yes. We enjoy having very little crime in our little Village and would like to keep it that way. It is becoming harder and harder to find new hires for the wages we offer. We hope with your support that we will be able to offer better wages, equipment and more man hours. Thank you in advance for supporting this levy.

Turkeys
I have received complaints of damage left behind by the Turkeys. I realize that there is an Ordinance protecting the Turkeys from harm. The question remains how do we help protect residents property? I think we can start by not feeding the Turkeys and this may or may not help. It is very easy to sit back and tell people to quit worrying about the Turkeys as long as it isn’t our properties that are being invaded and damaged. I can’t stop people from feeding the Birds Squirrels and Turkeys but please be considerate to people that are being over run.
Thank you
Mayor Gwinner
Bridge Clean Up
Let’s clean up and come together, Bay View!


Join us for our BRIDGE CLEANUP event on Friday, April 4th or Saturday, April 5th (weather dependent – final date announced on 3/31)!
This is your chance to experience community, protect our water, and be part of something that truly makes a difference to our local environment.
Big thank you to Erie Shores Waste Removal for sponsoring the collection—your support means the world to us and our village!
We’ll kick things off at 10:20 AM at Bubbles By the Bay Laundromat (701 E Bayview Drive) to meet and grab some coffee. We’ll then spend some time cleaning up, enjoying lunch, and handing out some awesome prizes. Bring your gloves, a water bottle, and a good attitude—we’ll supply the trash bags and buckets!
Let’s show what Bay View is all about—community, action, and pride.
Reminder, we will release the final date on Monday March 31st!
