Re: Questions on current Hamilton County renewals

Just to wrap up my story...

I opted to go to Warren County, and I was quite pleased.

My appointment was at 10:30 last Friday.
Light traffic up I-71, light traffic up Rt 48, no traffic once I turned into their government complex, and the parking lot mostly empty.
I was early, and walked into the lobby at 10:16.

The only downcheck I'd give them is signage - or lack thereof.
The only window was marked "RECORDS" in tall letters. Since there wasn't a second option I stood in front of it, waited until a person saw me, left their desk and came up.
I told them why I was there, they collected my forms and IDs, and told me I'd be called by "her" in a minute.
And so I was, by a very polite, friendly woman. The office where the actual work was done didn't have chairs - I stood behind the line, she took my pic, we did the fingerprint thing, and I was out the door with my card before 10:30.

As a veteran my fee was paid by the state.

So except for the drive to and from Lebanon, it was a great experience. Downtown Cincy would have been closer, but considering traffic, parking, and the fact that you have to navigate the not-always-friendly street UNARMED, Warren County was a great pick.
