Will be interesting...the largest roundabout near the area is in the well-traveled Tallmadge suburb of Akron. Most roundabouts are in small towns like New Middletown and Middlefield, I feel a roundabout can possibly make the situation worse, since you're asking poor drivers to not stop and merge with oncoming traffic, which they might be even worse at.
Bottom Dollar local locations received a greater than expected response in just the 1st day of being open. I'm sure the $10off/$20 coupons they sent via postcard to most of the area will drive their business into March, and we'll have to see what it's like after that. From looking at the ad I've received, they look very competitive, and every sale price beat Walmart's high grocery prices, especially that Walmart raised all of their prices a minimum of 15% the day after Christmas, and has steadily raised prices each week since. Walmart's days of the lowest prices are long gone, and I've saved more money and agrivation shopping at Target, IGA, Sparkle, and Aldi...and now Bottom Dollar :)
Doing better.... Hopefully that means obeying traffic rules and not trying to get yourself and others killed on the rollercoaster lanes of I-680 and into the traffic messes on State Route 224... Replacing your muffler when it's overdue... Stay off of drugs, stop smoking, and stop living at the bars! Be kind to your fellow valley residents! This area used to be a good family atmosphere, but it's increasingly the worst in general attitude of all of Ohio and Pennsylvania...even worse than Philadelphia, which can be brutal. Let's see a REAL change and see our community grow for the better.
This took out parts of Youngstown, Liberty and Girard. No boil alert was issued, yet is required by law. The news was first 'discovered' by the Vindicator, and NO other news outlets, but released 12 hours later. EPA rules says automatic boil alert for those affected, but did the news announce anything promptly on TV/Radio? (NO!) Walmart in Liberty was boxing up all their freezer and meat foods, because their new 'green' system requires high water pressure to operate. Did Walmart toss this food out?...Gave it to the shelters last night? Restock the same possibly contaminated food today or get a complete new truckload?
oooooh....now I know the name of the moron who is ruining the decent look of Brownlee Woods in Youngstown. I was going to purchase a property in the Brownlee woods area last year, but opted out of it, with one of the main reasons being the dilapidated view exiting I-680. Mr. Ludt's building is a NUISANCE and should be torn down or forced to be cleaned up. It's buildings and the owners of them like his building that give Youngstown a bad name and reputation. JAMES P. LUDT, Please do yourself and the citizens you think you care about a good favor...CLEAN UP YOUR PROPERTY OR MOVE AWAY AND ON WITH YOUR LIFE!!!
