Water main break under 48 in Centerville.

Government delaying and threatening Middletown power plant plan.
"Before an energy company planning to build a $500 million power plant in Middletown can start construction, it must clear a number of hurdles that include obtaining the necessary government permits and certification.
The public will have the opportunity to provide input. Also, the organization that operates the Midwest power grid, PJM Interconnection, is studying the effects of connecting a new electricity power plant on equipment and supplies.
Until government approvals are received and studies completed, the capital-intensive project Middletown leaders are calling a “flagship” for the city is not a done deal."
"It is only the beginning stages of what’s likely to be a more than year-long vetting process."
That's why I said I wouldn't hold my breath. The good news is this power company is used to dealing with oppressive government. It will take a lot to frustrate its owners to the point where they cancel plans. I bet the west Texas plant gets started in a fraction of the time it takes to start the Middletown plant.

Fuyao exec talks to DDN reporters. Here's what they wanted to talk about:
"The Fuyao (pronounced “FWEE-ow”) representative spoke this week with two Dayton Daily News reporters for nearly an hour, on everything from the Chinese auto glass manufacturer’s plan to create 800 new jobs to his appreciation of the work state development officers did to draw Fuyao here."
What a reliable propagandist for government.

Local health propagandists are working hard to absolve blame for a superbug they created. Great, Orwellian title.

In what passes for normal in Dayton, the celebrated project to destroy a classic building filled with student housing and replace it with a new building filled with student housing implodes, literally.
"Student Suites has submitted a new site plan for its proposed student housing complex downtown because the city of Dayton has been unable to clear a deed restriction tied to the recently imploded Schwind Building.
Steve Papa, director of operations and construction services for Student Suites, said the U-shaped, 200-unit building is now proposed to wrap around the Wilkinson Street side of the property, rather than the Ludlow Street side that includes the historic former Dayton Daily News building.
He said the initial aggressive target of opening in August 2014 has now been pushed back a year."
Anybody who bought into the initial prospective was a fool, and anybody who buys into the current prospective is a fool.

The last thing we need around here is more parasites performing Pentagon duties.

Parasites ask Dayton voters to pay them more money.
