Good morning, Union County. The future of Marysville is literally being drawn up as we speak.

This collaborative planning session covers everything from housing to sustainability โ€“ creating a roadmap that balances expansion while preserving what makes Marysville special.

While the city plans decades ahead, Union County schools are focusing on immediate student success. Ohio Hi-Point Career Center continues its free lunch program through 2025-2026, recognizing that well-fed students are better learners. And for those looking to beautify their surroundings, the Master Gardeners' 21st Annual Plant Sale arrives this Saturday at its new Union County Services Center location, offering everything from native perennials to trendy succulents at budget-friendly prices.
