How one man in rural Ohio is fighting a $5B Amazon data center

When John Glenn first started trying to stop an Amazon Web Services data center from going up in his rural Ohio township, he worried he was being selfish. The 37-year-old truck driver was concerned the data center, planned for about half a mile away from his St. Clair Township home, would make life harder for his family and that his two young kids wouldn't want to play outside with the noise and traffic. "Once I got to thinking and digging into it, the selfish part kind of went out and I started thinking about everybody's else's families," Glenn told The Enquirer. "I would want somebody to fight for me and my family." Now, Glenn is leading a charge to stop the $5 billion Amazon data center from locating in the Butler County township once and for all. And he may win. Glenn, who was appointed to the St. Clair Township Zoning Commission in October, has spent his first few weeks in the role spearheading a resolution to ban data centers from the township, which is home to about 6,600 people. He won a spot on the zoning commission, he said, after stopping in the township administrative building to ask what

Op-ed: A Veterans Day speech about a remarkable veteran

This message was written by Nate LaMar, who intends to deliver it as a speech at Veterans Day programs in Henry and Wayne counties. Chris O’Connor passed away Sept. 20 in Oxford, Ohio, while visiting his son at Miami University. We were West Point classmates and cadet company mates all four years. We did not get along initially: He was a blue-collar Irish Catholic, leftist Democrat hockey player from Massachusetts, while I was a W.A.S.P. farm boy, conservative Republican distance runner from Indiana. But we made it through plebe year and its academic difficulties. Becoming a cadet training officer is a job nobody wants, as you are in charge of dreaded drill for parades. But in the “leadership laboratory” that is West Point, at the end of junior year, our tactical officer told Chris he was recommending him for this role, as he didn’t care what other cadets thought of him! Chris was tough and had thick skin. We became friends and were both proud to graduate in the top 75% of our class. We roomed together at Fort Sill during Field Artillery School. We enjoyed Oklahoma, visiting nearby Wichita Mountains National Wildlife Refuge and Lawton’s ethnic restaurants. Thanks to
