Today we begin with the most read posts for January, February, and March. Click on each to read the original post.

JANUARY. During the first week of 2017, we posted a story on the announcement of Macy’s and Sears store closings across the country. Both of the Richland Malls stores survived, something which our readers clearly found interesting.

FEBURARY. In February, Governor John Kasich proposed a model for school funding that would have seen additional monies go to most Richland County school districts. We posted a story which profiled the gain or loss for each district.

MARCH. The most read 1812Blockhouse story in March of this year looked at the release of maps by the Ohio EPA that delineated the presence of lead in drinking water. We provided a link to access each map.
