Electrical Rates, Inspection Ordinance Passed By 4 1 Vote
In a four to one decision the City Commissioners approved emergency legislation to set up outside inspection by an engineering bureau for electrical work in Middletown. Commissioner Carmody objected to emergency status, urging three readings for study. The Cincinnati firm Inspection Bureau, Inc., is to handle permits and inspections, with a tentative June 15 change date. Rates range from 50 cents to 8 dollars based on circuit size and type, and certificates will be filed with the Building Commissioner. A League of Women Voters delegation urged charter revisions within two weeks to inform voters. The commission also discussed a proposed Columbia Avenue reservoir and will meet with engineers to finalize location changes.
