And the media? The Media Keeps Getting It Wrong

Union Township welcomes new and growing businesses

The old Wendy’s on the corner of SR 125 and Nine Mile Road in Withamsville is finally gone. Construction has begun on a Take Five Oil Change. Also, the old video store triplex where the Glen Este Starbucks had been is now gone. Outback Steakhouse will be building there. Additionally, construction continues on the TQL expansion and the Inter Parish Ministry food pantry in Mt. Carmel.

  • Mike’s Car Wash has purchased an existing facility with planed upgrades off of SR 125 and McMann Road. They hope to “washout” the competition.
  • Plans have been approved for Chick-fil-A to improve and expand their drive through lanes. Now that’s something to “cluck” about.
  • Vandalia Rental is “gearing up” to move into the old Ohio Mulch location on Mt. Carmel Tobasco Road near the Days Inn.
  • Bubbakoo’s is “cooking up” plans to open in the previous Zoup’s location.
  • Kay Jewelers is looking at a “golden” opportunity to locate a store near Sportsman’s Warehouse.
  • Dirty Dough Cookies is “baking” plans to open near the Cherry Grove Skyline Chili.
  • Panda Express is looking to raze the car wash next to the Union Township library and build a new location there. It’s an “appetizing” venture that has been approved by the Board of Trustees.
  • Honda East will be expanding their operations in Cherry Grove. Wouldn’t it be nice if they offered free samples?
  • Inter Parish Ministry has a food pantry under construction across from Gold Star Chili in Mt. Carmel.
  • PetSuites will be “grooming” a new location on Old SR 74 next to Office Max. Construction is expected to begin in late April.
  • TQL will be adding an additional 1,000 jobs at its sprawling UT campus. The new southern wing will look similar to their recently added northern wing.
  • Kroger plans to demolish Sears and build a new 123,722 square foot Kroger Marketplace store detached from the mall. The store will include a Starbucks, drive through pharmacy, expanded deli, expanded bakery, a Murray Cheese section, sushi, expanded adult beverage section, apparel, home goods, expanded grocery section, and a Kroger fuel center with 18 fuel pumps. The fuel will be on the recently shuttered Wendy’s side of the parking lot. The northeast side of the store will have a parking area for on-line pickup. The current Kroger store on Eastgate Boulevard will likely close in coordination with opening the new Kroger Marketplace store.
  • Outback Steakhouse will be “firing up” a new restaurant near Meijer’s where the old Starbucks and a video store used to be. Lot demolition has begun. The “stakes” could be high.
  • Take 5 Oil Change is currently building on the site of an old shuttered Wendy’s near the corner of Ohio Pike and Nine Mile Road. It’s a “slick” move.
  • Biggby Coffee has begun “brewing” lot preparation for a new location in Meijer’s parking lot near the current Chase Bank location.
  • Chase Bank will be relocating their Eastgate location to Eastgate Blvd near Big Lots. They are hoping to “cash-in” on the deal.
  • Taco John’s is planning to build a new restaurant near the Sam’s Club fuel pumps near Steak n Shake. We didn’t “grill” them at the Trustee’s meeting.
