The Village of Ottawa is a thriving community located in Northwest Ohio. In 2009, the Village celebrated 175 years since the founding. Today Ottawa continues to grow and prosper. The town of Ottawa was laid out in June 1834 on the site of the old Indian town of Lower Tawa, named after the tribe of Indians who had a reserve of land in Ottawa Township. The original town plat consisted of only one hundred and twenty-eight lots.
