Norwalk Adopts Plan For County Wide Building Code
A county wide building code drafted by Norwalk officials and contractors will go to the Huron County Regional Planning Commission for possible adoption. If not county wide, Norwalk City Council will consider it after a year long effort. The code covers general construction electrical and mechanical standards. Two out of town taxi firms seek a Norwalk franchise. Meredith Bringinger and Ray Fuller plan to present proposals to the taxi committee while Walter Wagner presses for higher fares and fewer hours. A May 2 council meeting is set for action on a franchise. A Valley Park lawsuit against developers has been settled in Common Pleas Court. The case involved damages from substandard homes built by Robert Glover Elyria and Community Systems Corp. Royce Shopping Centers Inc and Norwalk discuss water service and annexation with a contract read on April 4. Some council members seek changes to Royce's $45 000 suggested water line contribution. The Reflector did not learn if a contract change was agreed Tuesday.
