Youths Held In Theft Of 1969 Ford In Ottawa
Two Ottawa youths aged 15 and 16 were referred to Franklin County juvenile authorities after stealing a 1969 Ford from Ramsay's Printing Company at about 9 am. Officers say they sped toward Lawrence, failed to pay at a gas station, and wrecked on a country road after a high speed chase. They were returned to their parents and jailed briefly before release. The county also reported a $2,720 unclaimed federal revenue sharing payment designated for Appanoose, Centropolis, Hayes, Ottawa and Williamsburg townships.

Housing Authority Created In Ottawa To Oversee North American Hotel Project
The Ottawa City Commission created a housing authority by resolution to administer the North American Hotel project, noting city administration lacks time to manage it once underway. No appointments have been made yet. The panel also denied a rezoning request for four lots on Cherry Street to multifamily housing, citing neighborhood input. Waussay Homes received approval for construction with on site inspections and city certificates for each home. The main generator at the city power plant will be temporarily shut down at 2 a.m. Sunday for cooling system repairs, with a GE technician on standby in Kansas City in case of troubles.
