Civic issues
Topics getting the most attention in Mahoning County public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
4-H and OSU Extension agricultural education
OSU Extension staff showed how they're bringing farming to city kids — 704 fourth graders at the first county Ag Day, hydroponics at Campbell schools, and chick-hatching in classrooms — with county funding helping make it happen.
Sanitary Engineer public operating hours
A resolution would fix the Sanitary Engineer Department's public hours at 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday, starting November 2, 2026 — the hours residents need to know when conducting water/sewer business.

Norman Avenue (County Highway 255) would be transferred from county maintenance to Smith Township's highway system — a jurisdictional housekeeping matter that shifts who repairs that road.
