Plans are moving forward to locate a Dollar General Store in the downtown Espyville area, as Code Officer Bob Hutton explained to the Board of Supervisors during the recent February meeting at North Shenango Township.

Presiding Board members were Eloise Settlemyre, Jeff Daniels and Bill Emerick.

Secretary Denise Gray took the minutes.

Hutton proceeded to tell the Board that the proposed location is in the Chapel Road and Rt. 285 area, next to the Lakeside General.

Conditional Use permits and PADOT permits were discussed, and the representative for Dollar General stated that everything is progressing as planned.

There is an escrow account in the Storm Water Maintenance Plan for the proposed business, which is similar to a Small Flows Account.

A proposed budget in the Conneaut School District for the year to begin July 1 has created some talk in the school district community with some school board members receiving calls and comments appearing elsewhere.

School board member David Schaef is telling those district residents in touch with him that it is way to early in the budget process to become upset.

He notes that under state law a school budget must be in place for public inspection by late January and a first budget must be voted upon by mid-February

Schaef explains that as soon as school starts in August, teachers are being asked to begin making out a budget for the following school year.

"How can you know what is really needed a year ahead of time," he asks.
