Bids Planned in March for Stimson Extension Project
Service Safety Director Dwight Robinson says bids for the Stimson Avenue extension are expected in March. Negotiations continue with property owners for a right of way and with Ohio University for an easement. The 36 foot street will have sidewalks on both sides and a retaining wall from Campbell Street east to the existing wall. It will cross the B and O railroad tracks and connect with the Appalachian Highway with flasher lights at the crossing. Funding will be from city state and federal sources, with the city paying half. Costs may exceed 354000 dollars. The city’s 1 million parking garage should be finished soon with six concrete pourings remaining and weather delaying east sidewalk work.

Fire that possibly started from a bathroom heater gutted the home of Mr and Mrs Pat Largent in New Marshfield early Wednesday. Fire Chief Charles Conkey said alarms came in about 3 30 am and volunteers faced freezing equipment and water shortages. Sargents escaped as flames spread through partitions and into the attic. Firemen saved a nearby outbuilding and kept flames from Sheldon Lowry’s house next door. Waterloo firefighters used 500 gallons from a pumper and 1 000 from a tanker, refilling once, but could not subdue the blaze.
