CANTON – Agency emails contradict some statements Stark Metropolitan Housing Authority Executive Director Herman Hill has made about the purchase of a house and a job provided for its tenant.
The Canton Repository reported in February that the Housing Authority bought a house on 41st Street NW in the Plain Local Schools system. It was leased to Section 8 voucher-holder Britnee Allen of Orrville; she then was hired for a newly-added agency position.
Hill knew Allen. He and Allen s seventh-grade sons, both now living in the Plain Local school system, played on a travel basketball team in 2017, and have played against each other since.
“It was for a specific area around the city of Cincinnati school district. … I don’t care about Plain Local. I’ll never go to Plain Local. I’ll never be in Plain Local. I don’t even know where Plain Local is. My intention is to take care of my district because all politics are local ultimately and they are in my local district.”

We had too many people more concerned about their individual rights . than the consequences of those actions for people more vulnerable than themselves. Now, it’s playing out [with] vaccines, too.

Plain Local approves strategic plan focused on the whole family
PLAIN TWP. The Plain Local School District is looking toward its future beyond COVID-19.
The school board on Wednesday unanimously approved the district’s 2020-24 strategic plan that will serve as a compass for the district of roughly 6,000 students and 600 employees.
“I know we’re in a difficult time, but we will come out of this and when we come out of it, we have to be better than when we went into it,” Superintendent Brent May said. “… We can’t stop moving forward.”
The plan includes seven goals and associated objectives that touch every aspect of the district including academics, facilities, employee recruitment and development, finances, culture and community relationships.
