MINSTER - Economic development remains at a standstill in this Auglaize County community as lack of industrial park space remains a concern.
Committee chairman Rick Schwartz told the Minster Community Improvement Corporation board of trustees earlier this week that, "The land search has pretty much cooled off."
"We have looked at some farms that might be available but they were not suitable due to location or other concerns," he reported. [More]

Traditional animals at this year's Mercer County fair have more to combat than the inescapable heat: for the first time ever, cows and rabbits are battling some exotic newcomers for the affection of children.
Dog license fees will remain frozen at $11 for next year, although Mercer County Commissioners plan to examine the cost of kennel licenses next year.
Dog licenses cost $11 each; kennel licenses are $55. Commissioners also left the cost unchanged last year.
