Annexation plan dropped as Carlisle residents balk
Elyria February 22 The proposed annexation of a Carlisle township segment is dropped due to resident disinterest and fear of neighborhood gossip. Fourteen of fifty south of 16th street favor annexation while others oppose or stay silent. The water committee says Carlisle residents have been “playing horse” with the council and will push steps to deny city water to that area and probably bar outside users, citing city taxation to support a waterworks system. Attorneys claimed possible persuasion, but council reports strong opposition and the project will be argued.
