Developer seeks zoning change to build low-income apartments on Dorr Street
A developer is seeking a zoning change at Dorr Street and Smead Avenue to construct a multiuse building that would include low-income apartments and small commercial shops.

The applicant, Jim Jackson of JJ Holdings of Ohio LLC, is requesting the zoning change from CO office commercial to CM mixed commercial residential to redevelop the site for a mixed-use project that will include affordable multifamily housing and a health clinic, pharmacy, and other appropriate services on the ground floor for residents, the senior population, and the broader community. Preliminary development plans call for a 48,000-square-foot building with a ground floor of approximately 12,000 square feet for commercial uses and three floors above with apartments consisting of one and two-bedroom units.

Wendy’s Trolling McDonald’s in Ohio is Hilariously Diabolical
Wendy's has taken their trolling of McDonald's up a notch and it's going viral. It's worth noting that Wendy's is the underdog in this battle, and always has been. For example, looking at annual revenue, McDonald's is the second-largest Fast Food brand in the U.S. under Starbucks in 2024. Wendy's is the 12th largest on that same chart according to BrandDirectory.com. When you're the underdog, you have a little more freedom to think outside of the box with advertising and marketing.
BGSU research finds reduced levels of harmful algae toxins in Sandusky Bay
SANDUSKY — After years of detecting harmful algae in Lake Erie’s Sandusky Bay, Bowling Green State University researchers recently discovered that a toxic cyanobacterium called Planktothrix has essentially disappeared. While other algae still are present, BGSU scientists have determined a likely cause behind the drop in toxins, signaling a major improvement for a body of water that millions rely upon for life, work and play. “The water looked pretty bad in 2019, but we didn’t know that it was actually slowly improving,” said George Bullerjahn, BGSU emeritus professor of biology. “In 2020, we started to go out to the bay every week but there was nothing. Since then, we’ve found benign algae, but no toxins.” With no major adjustments to nutrient loads and not enough time passing for significant changes, BGSU researchers turned their attention to the Sandusky River, which feeds into the bay and experienced a dam removal near the city of Fremont in 2018 to improve fish habitats.
