Being a Walmart greeter is a totally different position than supervisor of transportation. Let's look at it this way: if a bus driver was drinking off the job and got arrested/found guilty for OVI, they would lose their job and rightfully so. Why shouldn't the supervisor of transportation be fired if found guilty? If anything, he should be at a higher standard since he hold an important title. If he isn't terminated if found guilty, what does this tell children... nothing bad will happen if you drink and drive because the supervisor of transporation can get away with it?
The supervisor of TRANSPORTATION for a school district should know better than to drink and drive. Almost anyone who is in the transportation business knows a DUI/OVI is a job killer. It is better these days to consent to the blood/breath test and then fight it rather than decline it.
I like how the superintendent thinks someone who allegedly drinks and then drives intoxicated doesn’t deserve to be fired or receive jail time (1st DUI/OVI has mandatory minimum of 3 days jail or 3 day intervention program).

New downtown bar to be like a ‘street festival’
I don't see how this will do well. If anything, it's going to just make a nice building look ugly.

St. Paddy's Day Dash drawing crowds to downtown tonight
Here are my ratings of the downtown bars:
O'Donold's - 4/5 - Nice atmosphere, friendly staff who remembers you, reasonable prices, great specials.
Lemon Grove - 1/5 - Usually a lackluster selection of beverages, overpriced, food menu changes way too often.
Draught House - 3.5/5 - Classic dive bar, reasonable prices, great specials, decent bar food.
Imbibe - 4/5 - Nice martini bar, reasonable for an "upscale" joint, wide selection.
Old Precinct - 1/5 - Annoying, frequented by YSU sports players and frat dudes. Lame beer selection.
9ine - 2/5 - Lame "nightclub".
V2 - 3/5 - Reasonable prices, great decor.
Dooneys - 2/5 - Overpriced, generic BW3's.
