Aging Baltimore (MD) Fleet Puts Five Companies out of Service; No Reserve Apparatus Available

Five Baltimore City Fire Department companies were out of commission Monday — including four trucks and one engine, according to the city’s firefighters’ union. The outages affected companies serving neighborhoods including Fells Point, Highlandtown, Reservoir Hill and Park Heights. The union said the department had no reserve apparatus available to replace the vehicles, potentially forcing other companies to cover larger areas.

City schools turn Veterans Day into a lesson in honor and service

While many schools will be closed in observance of Veterans Day, Cambridge City Schools students will spend the day honoring those who served. For the 2026-27 school year, Cambridge City Schools will hold classes on Nov. 11, allowing students to participate in Veterans Day activities, including the annual Guernsey County Veterans Day Parade and ceremony. To recognize the holiday, the district instead will close schools on Nov. 9, according to a release from the district. Students from district's high school, middle school and intermediate school will attend the parade and ceremony in downtown Cambridge, weather permitting. The parade will begin at 10 a.m. at the municipal courthouse on Highland Avenue and proceed down Wheeling Avenue to the Guernsey County Courthouse. The Cambridge High School Marching Band is scheduled to perform as part of the parade. Then students will gather on the courthouse lawn for the ceremony honoring local veterans. The experience provides students with a meaningful opportunity to learn about military service and the importance of national observances such as Veterans Day and Memorial Day, according to Superintendent Dan Coffman. “I believe part of what we should do as a school district is to help our students understand what being

The most harmful part of Cambridge’s divestment debate wasn’t the vote

The Cambridge City Council voted Wednesday to divest from companies “contributing to genocide, apartheid and occupation of Palestinians.” (“Cambridge votes 5-4 for order to divest money from businesses involved with Israel’s actions against Palestinians,” Oct. 28.) As a Muslim, parent, health equity researcher and longtime Cambridge resident, what stuck with me more than the vote was the language preceding it. Before the vote, I sat silently as a city councillor used her platform to spout debunked propaganda and dehumanizing rhetoric. When she said the population of Palestinians was still rising, so it could not be genocide, it felt like she was saying that not enough Palestinians had been killed, like we were talking about insects that needed to be exterminated.

Meetings air concerns about proposed short-term rental regs

LOGAN- A series of meetings were held in the commissioners’ office this week to discuss short term rental ordinances and allow for community members to ask questions and provide input before any decisions are made. Among the concerns raised at the meeting was added financial pressure from the new regulations. Local STR owner Marie Liptak explained that the annual $50 fee for a permit to operate a STR adds to the financial difficulties that she and other owners are facing. “The state next year is going to make all STRs into commercial properties, and that’s going to affect us yet again because of all the taxes that we’re already paying. Because we pay our 6% every month, and now the unrealized gains from our property taxes on top of our property taxes,” Liptak said. “That $50 fee a year, it’s more money out of our pockets. I don’t know about the other owners. We’re barely breaking even at this point.” Liptak also explained that Airbnb is now changing rules for owners, disallowing them from asking for IDs and rental agreements, making it more difficult for her and other property owners. She stated that she was concerned about big corporations taking

Between Columbus And Athens Is A Scenic Stop With Ohio's Largest Natural Rock Bridge, Camping, And Trails

Halfway between Columbus and Athens is Rockbridge, an outdoor enthusiast's paradise surrounded by state parks and nature preserves. The Ohio town takes its name from a large natural arch a few miles away. At a length of 100 feet, it's Ohio's largest natural rock bridge (and the only one about the same size as a blue whale). Besides this rock bridge, the town is also a gateway to places like the Rhododendron Cove State Nature Preserve, Clear Creek Metro Park, and Hocking Hills State Park, all within a 20-minute drive.

Newark City Schools superintendent to step down at start of 2027

Newark City Schools Superintendent David Lewis will step down at the start of 2027 to pursue a new professional opportunity, the district announced. In September, Lewis told district staff that he planned to retire at the end of the 2026-2027 school year, but moved that up to Jan. 1 after accepting an offer in another field, a news release states. The district hired Lewis in June 2020 after he spent seven years as superintendent of Miami Trace Local Schools in Fayette County. “This was not an easy decision, because Newark has meant so much to me,” Lewis said in the release. “I am grateful to our staff, families and Board of Education for seven wonderful years. What makes this district special is its people, and I know Newark Schools will keep building on the momentum we have created together.” During his tenure, the district opened a food pantry to serve students experiencing food insecurity and created the Alternative Academy so students could catch up on credits to remain on track to graduate. Lewis also helped lead the relocation of the preschool program into the former State Farm building . The program was previously across four facilities, and staff said the

Aligned stresses transparency as data center project advances | Exclusive

COSHOCTON − Representatives with Aligned Data Centers say transparency and accountability are watchwords many are brandishing, especially as data centers become hot topics in Coshocton County and around the country. The company is trying to address those concerns while becoming part of the local community as construction continues on its multi-billion dollar data center campus at the Conesville Industrial Park. Aligned has a website and neighborhood guide providing information and answering commonly asked questions about the project. It also has a community engagement email for direct inquiries at coshocton@aligneddc.com. Members of the executive team spoke recently at Coshocton Rotary and Kiwanis club meetings. They've also met with all county school district superintendents and visited the River View and Ridgewood campuses. The company's efforts at community outreach come as the development has faced scrutiny over transparency and access to information. Coshocton resident Andrew Frank sought records from the Coshocton Port Authority related to the project, including correspondence, grant and engineering records and meeting minutes, ultimately filing a complaint with the Ohio Court of Claims over a dispute regarding some information. Frank's complaint was dismissed on a technicality. He is appealing the ruling. More: Lawsuit against Coshocton port authority dismissed on technicality
