Couple to tie the knot Friday the 13th at Toledo funeral museum
For a Grand Rapids, Mich., couple, it all started at their local haunted house. When Ryan Reyher met Stephanie Briceno-Rosas at the Haunt in Grand Rapids in the summer of 2020, he was immediately smitten, he said. “I thought she was gorgeous,” Mr. Reyher said of his first impression. But it wasn’t just her looks that attracted him: “She was really caring and her aspirations were really cool.” He asked her out at the end of August, 2020, and their relationship blossomed. Six years later, the couple, who share a love of all things spooky, plan to marry on Friday the 13th at Mortuary Manor Funeral Museum & Event Center, a museum housed in a Victorian-era building that later served as a funeral home in Toledo. “We were looking for kind of a gothic venue within our budget,” Mr. Reyher said. “We decided to reach out and see if we could host a wedding there, and he was more than happy to do it.” Friday’s wedding is the first for the museum, said Cory Leibenguth, operational manager of Mortuary Manor. The building dates to the 1870s and was remodeled into a mansion-style structure in 1897, he said. It became Urbanski

Data center restrictions gain momentum across northwest Ohio
Successful citizen-led ballot initiatives limiting the size of data centers have led to a flurry of activity in other Toledo-area municipalities since the Nov. 3 election, including Whitehouse, Waterville, and Rossford. Volunteers turned over signed petitions for those three communities on Thursday, Friday, and Monday, respectively. They claim they gathered more than enough signatures for the Lucas County Board of Elections to certify them and require each of those municipalities to put similar ballot issues in front of voters in those communities. Next up are Perrysburg, Maumee, and Bowling Green. Toledo, which would need many more signatures because of its size, could eventually be targeted as well, said Lyn Cox, county lead for Conserve Ohio’s grassroots efforts in Lucas and Wood counties. Petitions have come back from printers for Perrysburg and Maumee, and are expected to be available in the next day or two for Bowling Green, she said. In the coming weeks, citizen-led ballot initiatives also will begin in Sylvania and Holland, Ms. Cox said. The activity comes in the aftermath of Oregon’s overwhelming vote in favor of a charter amendment that bans the construction of data centers that require 25 megawatts or more of electricity, which eliminates hyperscale
