![]() As concerns around electric grid reliability intensify, the need for more sustainable energy options grows. Ohio legislators have a golden opportunity to explore an innovative solution to these problems with House Bill 197. Introduced by Ohio Representatives Jim Hoops, R-Napoleon, and Sharon Ray, R-Wadsworth, HB197 would create a pilot program to encourage the development of community solar projects in Ohio for both residential and commercial use. Community solar is a simple yet transformative concept: it allows residents, businesses and organizations to share the benefits of a solar energy system without having to bear 100% of the associated costs as individuals. Instead, solar modules are installed on rooftops, in parking lots, on capped landfills, or at shared facilities within a community. Participants, including individuals, schools, hospitals, religious institutions, and businesses, subscribe to a portion of the solar energy produced by the panels, offsetting their electric bills and contributing to in-demand, renewable energy generation.

![]() Are you someone who spots a corner turned up on a mat at a restaurant and straightens it out? If so, you are one of my people. During the month of June, we celebrate National Safety Month. It’s a great time to recognize the men and women who devote their lives to keeping people safe. One such individual is Julie Reynolds of the Ohio Bureau of Workers’ Compensation; she is a tremendous advocate of safety & hygiene in the workplace. Another safety hero of mine is Bob Momany, President of the Safety Council of Northwest Ohio who is a flowing fountain of safety training and knowledge. A great lesson was learned from Bryan Johnson of Miami Industrial Trucks at the Toledo Regional Chamber of Commerce Annual Safety Conference held recently in April. Bryan asked “who has the right-of-way at a pedestrian crosswalk? Is it the pedestrian or the vehicle that is approaching the crossing?” We, of course, all answered “the pedestrian” which is how the rules are written. But does “right-of-way” mean anything to the oncoming truck that doesn’t see the pedestrian who is looking down at his phone? Keen awareness of your surroundings cannot be understated as a measure of safety! |
