ASHLAND - The City of Ashland is considering the feasibility of buying the closed Northland College campus to prevent it from becoming a "ghost property" now that the college is no more. Consultant Michelle Reeves from CIVILIS Consultants is assessing the 130-acre campus's feasibility for reuse, noting its turnkey spaces. Reeves will collaborate with officials, gather information, and discuss financing with State Rep. Angela Stroud’s office to identify revenue streams and financial constraints for a "rapid reuse plan." The final step involves determining the plan's cost and financial viability, including potential city financing. Reeves expects completion by late October or early November.

LAKE SUPERIOR - Filmmakers and researchers are using drones to explore an underwater mountain in Lake Superior. They want to see if Superior Shoal is a hotbed for aquatic life that could offer a refuge for species facing obstacles elsewhere in the Great Lakes. The mountain sits in the middle of Lake Superior, near the boundary between Canadian and US waters. The shoal is about 4 square miles of volcanic rock that rises up from the bottom of the lake to a height nearly three times that of the Statue of Liberty. Researcher Michael Rennie says if Superior Shoal is a magnet for aquatic life, then maybe it could offer help for near-shore populations dealing with environmental problems.
