Lakewood, Newark Catholic, Northridge, Utica leave Licking County League
Four Licking County League schools are on their way out. Lakewood, Newark Catholic, Northridge and Utica notified league officials Nov. 10 of their plans to leave the LCL and form a new league. “Pending a vote by the school boards at Lakewood, Newark Catholic, Northridge and Utica, those schools will leave the Licking County League beginning with the 2028-29 school year,” LCL commissioner Ron Bowman confirmed via text. “They will become charter members of a new league of like size schools. The LCL will become an eight-team league which will continue looking at future expansion.” Utica athletic director Howard Hill said details on the new league will be provided soon. Granville, Heath, Johnstown, Licking Heights, Licking Valley, Mount Vernon, Watkins Memorial and Zanesville will remain in the LCL. The LCL re-formed for the 2013-14 school year with 10 Licking County schools, and Zanesville in 2020 and Mount Vernon in 2024 have since been added.

Thornwood Drive project delayed by petroleum pipeline under roadway
The short stretch of dirt where Thornwood Drive pavement should be – between the new roundabout at Faye Drive and the railroad tracks to the south – has been sitting idle for weeks. If you travel that route between Newark or Granville and Heath, you might be wondering why it’s taking so long for construction crews to finish those few hundred feet of roadway. “The short answer is that we’ve had some delays and we’re working to get at least one lane open – southbound – for the winter,” Newark City Engineer Brian Morehead said. The longer answer is that completion of the $5.5 million project to improve that portion of Thornwood Drive is being held up by a petroleum pipeline that runs under the roadway. Morehead said the city is obligated to notify utilities when it is planning road construction so that the utilities can make any repairs or improvements to their pipes or wires while the road is torn up. Doing so allows the city and utilities to do the work all at once and avoid the potential that a utility will come along six months after new curbs, gutters and asphalt have been installed to tear it
