New Ordinance Could Define Sebald Park Authority
Law Director Tilmon Ellison says a city owned Sebald Park authority may require a new set of ordinances. A two week old incident where a car windshield was broken by men sparked questions after Middletown police desk confusion led to no cruiser responding, though police later admitted one should have been sent.

Middletown Mall Bill Advances to Governor for Signing
Middletown lawmakers await Gov. James Rhodes signature on the Middletown Mall Bill. The measure, approved by the Senate 31 to 1 after earlier House passage, would allow cities to reassess abutting property owners for costs of maintaining municipal malls including heating and cooling. Denham introduced HB 734 on April 24, 1975, following downtown mall construction integrating streets and buildings. Municipalities already can tax for lighting and maintenance, but the mall case lacks a heating and cooling assessment provision.

Middletown drop of career clothing idea for men
Darrell Fraley, Middletown financial analyst, said the plan for male city employees to wear career apparel was abandoned after a poor response. Two meetings and a survey drew only 15 positive replies out of 120 male workers, short of the needed 50 for a discount.
