Sheffield plans for an estimated 12,500 to Oster will be presented to Lorain County Commissioners by day, with Mayor Lewis Kale meeting commissioners. The project, deemed a top priority, aims to save Sheffield and Sheffield Village about 36,500 in road repair costs, partially funded by state money. The council also approved a Bob Beck Chevrolet cruiser bid at 3,000 plus taxes, favoring air conditioning over sirens, and agreed to replace village lighting with Mercury vapor lights at 54 more monthly. An emergency move extended 8 inch water lines near Abbe Detroit Road and along Detroit Road, with assessments pending.
