Boardman Fire Department is investigating a fire that was called in from the 1700 block of Nova Ln shortly before 11 a.m. on Monday.
Once found a little after noon, the driver of the vehicle was later identified as Brandon Bargar, 28, from Somerset, PA. The passenger was identified as Mazie Knight, 21, from Spartansburg, PA.
"Unfortunately, fixing this situation will take a tax increase to do it," Hillman said. "There's no other path forward. Unless the voters don't want those services."
The mall was sold to a company known as Southern Park Mall Realty Holdings LLC for $24,100,000 on Monday, December 23.
The new building would be a hub for Youngstown, potentially including community spaces and the city's police and fire departments.
