Nice! It still should have an Italian Ristorante though...

I haven't used or needed to use my car since Sunday morning.........for me that is pretty good. However, even though we have free public transportation (NIU has an excellent system for a moderate-sized university) and good walking/bike trails near my apartment complex, I need my vehicle to get to work and for entertainment. But I digress.....4 days (by tomorrow) without using my car has been a blessing for my wallet! :)

Norwalk Commons wants annexation By MARY LISA BOOSE - Reflector Staff Writer | Wednesday May 07 2008 http://www.norwalkreflector.com/articles/2008/05/07/front/doc4821c4ec60a7f078712417.txt Plans continue for growth at Norwalk Commons as developer David Conwill started annexation proceedings for the site of the old Batesville Casket Company on U.S. 250 from the township into the city. He also plans to add townhome apartments available for rent by September. Mayor Sue Lesch explained that many annexations come into the city as residential zoning, but the rest of Norwalk Commons is zoned for manufacturing and business. Planning Commission members attended to hold a hearing on the annexation and zoning change and had no objections. Conwill is asking for 4.2 acres be annexed into the city.

That would be the coal docks. Unfortunately this seems to typically be the case for Sandusky/Erie County........

Never had that specific problem; but I will have to agree that TCF is not a good bank. Thank goodness my primary bank is with a (superb) Ohio credit union.
