Stark-based Timken Co. suing to prevent auto 'supply chain hostage'

JACKSON TWP. – The Timken Co. has filed a lawsuit against the Pennsylvania-based Meadville Forging Co. "to stop a supplier from holding an automotive supply chain hostage." The Jackson Township-based manufacturer of engineered bearings and industrial motion products originally filed the complaint in federal court and then refiled it Nov. 2 in Stark County Common Pleas Court . Meadville Forging's general partner, Keller Group Services, is an Ohio corporation. Meadville Forging Co. is the sole source of forged cups and hubs that Timken uses to assemble wheel bearing hubs for the Ford Motor Co.'s F-150 and Ranger Super Duty trucks, Expedition and Navigator SUVs, and the Bronco Raptor off-road SUV. According to the complaint, the forging company stopped shipping parts to Timken on Oct. 29 after demanding a lump-sum of $8 million; a 48% price increase with pass-through costs for steel, freight and processing; and other terms. The parts are delivered on a "just-in-time basis," so Timken does not have significant inventory. The company has 34 open purchase orders for Meadville Forging parts valued at $3.8 million. "Because MFC stopped shipping, Timken's bearing-assembly production for Ford will begin to stop as soon as November 6, 2026, and shipments to Ford

New income tax in Ravenna fails, Kent backs tax change

Voters are considering an increased income tax in Ravenna, a change to Kent's existing income tax, two countywide tax issues, an issue that would repeal zoning in Paris Township, and a variety of other ballot issues throughout the county. Issue 15 is a 0.25% income tax that would fund new facilities to replace the Ravenna police station at South Park Way and Spruce Avenue, as well as the neighboring fire station and city hall. According to complete but unofficial results from the Portage County Board of Elections, the issue failed 2,504 to 1,266. The building is estimated to cost $25 million, which also is the amount that would have been generated over the 30-year lifespan of the tax issue. The tax was the same as the May issue that went before voters. It failed on the primary ballot. Issue 16 would change a tax approved in 2013 to build Kent's police station into a permanent tax for additional purposes. The 0.25% income tax generates around $2 million per year. The levy was supposed to sunset in 2038 after the building debt was scheduled to be paid off. However, the city saw higher-than-expected job and income tax growth, which will allow

We Found 10 Ohio Farms That Make An Ordinary Weekend Feel Like A Fall Getaway

A farm in Ohio claims America’s longest super slide, and it stretches 311 feet. That’s a whole lot of slide to find on a farm with apple orchards and a pumpkin patch.
