On October 4, the Ada Council held a special meeting of the whole to discuss turning Buckeye Ave. into a one-way street between Johnson and Gilbert streets.
Village Administrator Jamie Hall presented the findings from a study by the Choice One engineering firm. Visibility issues, pedestrian safety and backup from the carryout drive-through at the corner Main and Buckeye were mentioned among reasons this change is being considered.

Many songs have been written about cruising, but they do not always refer to being on a boat. Smokey Robinson wrote, produced, and recorded his song Cruisin’ for Motown records in 1979. His opening line is a classic when he writes, “Baby, let’s cruise, away from here.” Cruisin’ was on Smokey’s Where There’s Smoke album and hit #1 on the Billboard charts in 1980. One can get lost in Smokey’s smooth soul sound.
