Had you visited Put-in-Bay in 1905, you would have seen the beginnings of Miller Ferries to Put-in-Bay & Middle Bass Island. It’s now the biggest ferry service on Lake Erie, but it didn’t start that way. Back in the early 1900s, Miller Ferry began as a fishing charter and water taxi business in the summer, and an ice harvesting business in the winter.

​At its regular meeting on June 2 at 4:00 p.m., Toledo City Council is expected to vote on two ordinances that would accept and spend funding from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) under the federal CARES Act for COVID-19 related expenses.

Council is expected to give first reading to a third measure, Ordinance 193-20, which would create a specific fund to accept and spend expected funding to the city for purposes prescribed in the CARES Act.
