LISBON — The Columbiana County jail has a new warden who hopes to stick around longer than his predecessors. Bill Cole was introduced last week to county commissioners as the latest warden, becoming the fifth person to hold that position since late 2015.

Cole said the state decided to close the Pittsburgh facility, so he decided to retire. His wife works at the federal prison in nearby Elkton, and they live with their children just over the state line in Bessemer, Pa.
