.- Take all the cheap prints off the walls. 

I work for General Dynamics Electric Boat which has decades long contracts with the US government and the turnover rate is relatively high in the company so my thoughts are if I could choose a place that is within commute distance there and within the price range of the average employee that maybe that could be a great idea but I want to know if people think that is too much of an assumption and risk to make?

As far as the legality of sober living homes they have a good bit of protection at the federal level from local government discrimination since people in recovery from addiction are a protected class, however some cities and counties have occupancy laws and certain codes that conflict with the sober home model and oftentimes the neighbors are not keen on having one next to them.

These were for a jewish people that were governed in a Theocratic system where this was the funding mechanism.

Interesting point about bailouts and government support.

Are there any on-line government sources of truth for any particular city's future infrastructure/expansion/city planning plans or any private company tracking these initiatives? 

Next month we have one of the local city councilman speaking about the intersection of local governance and real estate. 

I just read 5 books (out of print, published between 1979 and 1986) all related to wealth building thru real estate “trading and exchanging” (not for tax free exchange).These were the most convoluted, confusing, and unfocused real estate books I ever read!

Find an Ohio lawyer to not only defend you on the government charges but to go after the contractor.How much real estate experience do you have?

Go straight to the governing city and county, call and get it straight from the horses mouth.
