You mean someone actually proposed such a thing?

And lived to tell about it?

yep, it was a Centerville idea. Apparently "Self-Centered-ville" can't afford the level of services they are providing so they try to do two things to pump-up tax revenue:

a) annex new retail/offic stuff across the county line in Sugarcreek Twp
b) merge with Washington Township.

On a different topic:

I was sort of looking forward to Austin Pike interchange as a good backway into W Twp area, but all that office/industrial stuff they are planning is just going to add more traffic so machts nichts on traffic relief at the I-675 exits.

New interchanges are never intended to ease traffic. And, of course, the commercial interests attracted by the new interchanges rarely pay for them, do they?

[Crew Chief]

Nope, interchanges rarely make sense unless they are built a good ways from the one before or after. And, no, Ohiogirl81, commercial interests have good lawyers to make sure they pay as little as possible...

JefferyT; Yep, I'm embarrased about the Sugarcreek Twp "robbery". And, maybe he's a nice guy otherwise. But the only time I've ever seen Mayor Kingseed in person ws at a Washington Township Trustee meeting and he just struck me as being a shyster lawyer... I became quickly suspect of the "study committee"; Jane Beach, who works in Centerville's Law Office, representing the Twp??? WTF!!!
