OB Planning Board Election Results to Be Announced Tonight

We have been waiting for the election results from Tuesday’s Planning Board balloting. We have heard that a press release will be released tonight. As the Board allowed for mail and email voting this year for the first time, they are just making sure they have all of the ballots back.

There are prizes for the selected entries.  For more info, go here.

OB Rag Office to Open at the Green Store

The OB Rag will soon have a functioning office located inside the Green Store at 4843 B Voltaire Street. We’ll be using it for interviews, phone work, and will have access to WiFi.  We also need some throw rugs and posters for our space.  And sometime probably in April, we’ll have an Open House and invite everyone. So, stay tuned.

Weekly Polls on the OB Rag

If you have missed our weekly polls, join the club – I miss them too. But the widget that allowed us to post them is now so outdated that it doesn’t mesh with with our current WordPress.  But Patty at our Tech Desk has assured me that we will soon have a new one. Any ideas for future polls? Send ’em in.

This site apparently has no area for someone to post something that is not article related? Anyways. Here is a web page that should be published on your site:

I was hoping for a press release from the OB Planning Board about the results of Tuesday’s election, but as of 7 am Friday morning have not heard anything.
