Dublin • October 2, 2025
Good morning, Dublin. A dramatic scene unfolded at one of our busiest intersections as an overturned gasoline tanker shut down the Dublin roundabout, forcing closures along State Route 161 at University Boulevard. While crews work to clean up the spill, officials confirm the truck is no longer leaking fuelโthough motorists should continue avoiding the area from Cosgray Road to U.S. Route 33 until the scene is cleared completely.
On a more appetizing note, a beloved culinary landmark is making its triumphant return after a decade-long absence. Milo's Deli is reopening its doors this week in Franklinton, bringing back their famous pressed paninis alongside new offerings served on homemade schiacciata bread. The revival comes as local politics heats up with Columbus City Council candidates Tiara Ross and Jesse Vogel exchanging spirited critiques during a German Village forum focused on transparency and community governance.

๐ฅช Beloved family deli returns after decade-long hiatus in Franklinton. Milo's Deli, originally opened by Louie Pappas and Demetra Stefanidis, is making its comeback this week at 401 W. Town St. after closing in 2014 to focus on catering. The new location features a full bar, multiple dining areas, and brings back customer favorites like their famous pressed paninis alongside new offerings on homemade schiacciata bread. For Pappas, whose father opened Tommy's Diner in the same neighborhood in 1989, the reopening is about reconnecting with customers in the community that has supported his family for generations.
๐ณ๏ธ Columbus council candidates clash over transparency and ethics in heated forum. Tiara Ross and Jesse Vogel, both Democrats running for Columbus City Council, sparred over their different governing philosophies during a German Village event. Ross, backed by the political establishment, defended her past parking ticket issues while promoting her experience working within city government. Vogel positioned himself as an outsider willing to challenge the status quo, criticizing Ross for moving back to Columbus just before the filing deadline. The candidates also addressed a lawsuit between the German Village Society and the city regarding historic district regulations.
