Laura Franks 3rd Quarter, 2011 Bexley Consumer Price Index Report

September 29, 2010, Script for Bexley Consumer Price Index Third Quarter, 2011.



This is Laura Franks reporting the Bexley Consumer Price Index for the third quarter, 2011.

The Bexley CPI reports on the aggregate prices paid for a uniform basket of merchandise purchased at retail in Bexley, Ohio and nearby retail stores.

The Bexley CPI measures the change of prices for typical retail purchases made by Bexley residents.

The Bexley Consumer Price Index can be compared to the price changes reported by the Bureau of Statistics, U.S. Department of Labor. The comparison can provide useful information for Bexley consumers about local price changes compared to price changes in other parts of the United States.

As of the third quarter, 2011 compared to the second quarter, 2011, Bexley prices showed a 1% decrease. This slight decrease was due to one (1) item being marked down a significant 38% even though the baseline price of three (3) other items was increased.

Once again with retail prices like this, I definitely conclude that it is always nice to live in Bexley.

This is Laura Franks for the WCRX-LP, 102.1 FM Bexley Consumer Price Index Report.

DWT Rally on north Statehouse lawn. Bexley Police Chief Rinehart to speak.

Activist Sharon Montgomery writes:

HB 99 was assigned to a Senate committee today--Highways & Transportation, as we expected. Chairman Patton has already expressed his belief that this kind of law is unenforceable. Luckily, we now have the results of the pilot targeted enforcement projects in NY & NJ, showing--guess what--that the same model of public awareness and high visibility enforcement that works for seat belts etc. works for this!

The "Don't Text and Drive" Rally is scheduled by state Representative Rex Damschroder, the AAA Ohio Auto Club and Columbus City Council member Michelle Mills. The rally will be held Thursday September 22, at noon on the north lawn of the Ohio Statehouse (arrival time 11:00 a.m.).

Appearing as a rally speaker is Bexley Police Chief Larry Rinehart.

The rally has been moved from the south lawn to the north lawn (the Broad St. side). As of Tuesday, neither chamber was scheduled to be in session--just committee hearings. That should make more parking available in the underground garage but of course we hope for a really big turnout for the rally so it wouldn't hurt to plan to arrive downtown a little early in case you need to park farther away & walk back.
