Richland zoning debate prompts council action and water fixes
Richland residents urged council to grant uniform B3 zoning or individual concessions for properties on Richland Ave. A water pressure issue west of Routes 33 and 50 prompted a proposed tie-in to a high pressure line with pressure reducers for some homes. A parking survey proposed replacing meters to curb “meter feeding” with all day meters near the business district. An emergency measure allowed hiring of extra counsel for Sanitary Sewer District 1 suits. The mayor seeks PUC hearing representation for a Columbus and Southern rate case.
