Here's your local news at a glance for Monday, the 16th of March.
Good morning, Hamilton.
🌲 Environment
The Army Corps of Engineers is studying faster cleanup at a 14-acre former missile site northwest of Oxford with minor groundwater pollution & mailed surveys asking residents for update preferences until March's end.
Cleanup is expected to span about a decade unless new methods are used.
🏛️ Government
Two new I-75 rest stops in Liberty Twp near the Ohio 63 interchange have nearly finished exteriors while crews work on interiors and landscaping.
Officials said the updated facilities with expanded truck parking and modern amenities are scheduled to re-open by summer's end — part of a $16 million project.
🏥 Health
The Food Safety and Inspection Service issued a health alert for Costco frozen stuffed pastries that may contain ham and cheese instead of turkey pesto & swiss cheese, and customers who purchased the 25.4-oz boxes packaged on Feb.
18 are advised to return them for a refund.
📰 Real Estate
Hamilton will receive a $2.5 million state grant to develop 100 workforce housing units under its Build Back the Block initiative to ease local shortages.
Officials say the first 10 homes could be built later this year and sold below construction cost to families with lower or moderate incomes.
🏈 Sports
A magistrate in Columbus stopped a planned billion-dollar transfer for the Browns' new stadium today, a decision that may affect future funding for upgrades by the Bengals+ FC Cincinnati.
The ruling could change how local sports venues get planned and improved.
