Commissioners Discuss Funding Shafer Extension

Athens County Commissioners mulled adding funds to extend Shafer Street toward the Hocking River linking to Richland Avenue with a hospital spur. The project now tops 317000 dollars with 150000 already earmarked, while fears linger over depleting the Issue I balance for other highway work. The panel planned a 3:30 p.m. session today to decide on water system charges and meter requirements for sewer customers who use their own water.

Deputy Registrar Leaves Post in Athens County

Nancy Kern resigns as Deputy Registrar of Motor Vehicles in Athens County after four years. Gov. James Rhodes will appoint a successor. Kern notes the job is hard but rewarding, with computerized records, in office at the courthouse, and self-funded by a 50 cent per customer charge. She may run for Nelsonville city auditor if her husband Donald Kern seeks re election as mayor.
