A couple of suggestions for the demolition program:
1) As soon as a house or structure is placed on the demolition list, a city work crew should be in the house taking the copper and other recyclables BEFORE THE THIEVES GET THEM. Any money generated is money the taxpayers don't have to pony up.
2) Valuable woodwork, panelling, fireplace fronts, and other items of value such as antiques, should be removed from the structure immediately, placed in a warehouse (we do have a vacant warehouse or two in the city, don't we?) and put up for auction on a venue such as eBay.
So did Sheesley become unconscious every time she did heroin? She must not have, because everyone involved claims they felt that something was wrong. Yet they did nothing effective - they if anything made the situation worse, besides sitting on their hands watching their friend die. One call to 911, and a shot of Narcan when the ambulance arrived, and Sheesley would still be alive.
Speed limit set to increase
Finally - we're back to the speed those roads were designed for.

Should the city of Youngstown pay up to $200,000 a year for a planning firm?
First, Youngstown needs to figure out what it wants to do. THEN it can plan.

Boardman eyesore to be demolished
Boardman is going to end up with as many "parks" as Youngstown. I wonder if the CCA will do Boardman's too?

NEO gas prices down 4 cents
That's funny - locally, the price of gasoline just went UP 5 cents.
Our prices jumped 30 cents per gallon overnight just a few weeks ago - that's why our prices haven't jumped with the others. Ours went up first.
Price-gouging at its finest, and Congress in on board with it. It's disgusting.
