​

Good morning, Union County. Walmart's newly transformed Marysville Supercenter isn't just sporting a fresh look – it's putting its money where its community is. The retail giant celebrated its renovation with nearly $10,000 in donations to local organizations, including a generous $5,000 gift to the Union County Sheriff's Office. The store's makeover features everything from interactive displays to a community-inspired mural celebrating Marysville's monarch butterfly heritage – proving that sometimes corporate renovations can have a hometown heart.

Brace yourselves for a significant reshuffling of your daily commute as major road closures hit the county through Fall 2025. U.S. 42 southbound shuts down starting July 8, while several other key routes face long-term disruptions. Meanwhile, tonight's Marysville City Council meeting tackles six ordinances, including a potential development agreement with Amazon Data Services that could reshape the 33 Innovation Park Development. The 7 p.m. session is open to all, both in-person and online.
