Boccieri making an early impression

David Griffin, president of Tekfor USA in Wooster, talked with Mayor Bob Breneman and U.S. Rep. John Boccieri Monday about the possibility of the auto parts manufacturer increasing output in the second half of 2009 and into 2010 -- this in a recession. Boccieri took some heat in his race for the 16th Congressional House seat because he did not live in the district at the time. He since moved to Alliance. However, he has been in Wooster so much, I wouldn't be surprised if Breneman handed him a city income tax form. Boccieri talked to business leaders at Rotary Monday, then visited Griffin and his staff at Tekfor before heading out to Will-Burt in Orrville later in the day. He plans on speaking about alternative energy during the Ohio Grape and Wine Conference at the Ohio Agricultural Research and Development Center on Tuesday and with some university presidents Thursday at The College of Wooster.
