The Water Street Tavern in Kent is giving area college students a fun and easy way to get to the GoDaddy.com Bowl – with the help of a famous friend. Tavern owner Mike Beder said comedian John Caparulo, a Kent State University graduate, has "donated a significant amount of money to offset the price of the trip for students to see the Kent State Golden Flashes play in their first bowl game in 40 years."

The subsidized price of $…

Conditional use permit for restaurant's on-street smoker will be extended for a full year.
It’s Friday, which means Cajun Dave’s will be serving up its BBQ Platter Special tonight featuring meats slow-cooked in its mega-smoker – a weekly event the restaurant is allowed to continue on Water Street for another year, says Kent City Council. Last May council voted to extend a conditional use permit allowing the restaurant, which is located inside the Water Street Tavern, to operate a barbecue smoker in an on-street parking space in front of the building twice weekly. The smoker is typically only used on Fridays. Council’s approval in May came after several neighboring business owners wrote letters speaking out against the smoker, which is why the extension came with the condition that council review the operation this month.
