Middletown Eaton Pike paving bid tensions rise
Property owners along the Middletown Eaton pike prepare Tuesday night to decide if paving proceeds. The 3.67 mile road connects Middletown and Eaton with a $248,455.18 project cost and brick bid of $176,484.16, suggesting about $42,600 per mile, though prewar costs were lower. County engineer Fred M Harmmerle calls it the county’s most arduous road, noting a six inch concrete base and bond financing tied to a separate state highway project. If injunctions are dropped, paving may start under the $175,000 bid and bonds may remain idle with interest. County commissioners say the project is desired and bids are favorable.
