In fact, Hess said she had to drive around the block twice before finding a spot before Monday’s meeting. Once in session, the commissioners agreed to contact Doug Bonar, the person who owns the building which currently houses the Noble County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office about using that accompanying parking lot after normal work hours. “Right now, nobody parks there at night,” Albion Town Manager Tena Woenker said in making the case for more parking.
