"Any of our veterans that are waiting for their appointments or their rides to appointments, they now will have a place to get in out of the weather," said Allen County Commissioner Brian Winegardner. "There will be a bathroom in there, lobby, office area, storage and so on. So I think it will be a good fit for what our veterans need."

Area business leaders heard firsthand about what is happening in Allen County during the Lima Rotary Club's annual State of the County address.
