Some high-level painting is underway on Ada's Main Street this week. The top of the building that houses Beacon Realty, 208 N. Main St., is getting a new coat of paint. In our photo shoot, the Icon had difficulty trying to chose which view to post.
So, in this story, we've posted four different views. We'll let the viewers decide which photo they like the best.
Grindell Masonry, Kenton, is the contractor for the job.

The rainstorms we experienced earlier this week left us all with a little education in the importance of storm sewer systems.
Overall, the Village’s storm sewer system performed quite well during the storms, especially given the amount of rain that came down in a short amount of time.
Some areas of our community received 3-4 inches of water in just a matter of minutes, which is far from the normal rainfall we would expect. While some of our streets had water, the storm sewer system was clear enough to allow that water to recede rather quickly.
