    Confiscated Madison Township home from major drug case goes up for sale

In episode 98 of the News Man Weekly, the crew riffs on graduation season, the Cavs’ Game 7 victory and the Sonic Temple music festival. We break down the latest developments surrounding the proposed Buc-ee's project, discuss the $1 million state grant awarded to demolish the West Park Shopping Center and recap the Ohio State Highway Patrol's latest OVI checkpoint. Carl also revisits the comedy classic Animal House in this week’s edition of “What’s Carl Watching?” complete with his top five favorite lines from the movie.

Later, we welcome Richland County Commissioner Tony Vero for a wide-ranging conversation about the proposed Franklin Township data center, the Buc-ee’s development, wind and solar restrictions, the future of the Westinghouse site and Richland County's direction over the next five years. The interview also explores the balancing act between economic growth and quality of life as local leaders navigate some of the biggest development conversations the county has seen in years.
