City Gives Property Owner Second Chance

Spencer and Tracy Davis, owners of property at 1818 Reider St., received a 30-day extension from the city Monday at the Warsaw Code Enforcement Hearings. "We've made some repairs, but it's come to a stop due to finances coming in," Tracy Davis said of the list of violation corrections. "We've had the water heater replaced," Tracy Davis said."We've just run out of funds right now." "The water heater was the big issue," building inspector Pam Kennedy said. The property has been vacant for 1-1/2 months.Tracy Davis was at the code enforcement hearings in April and was in the process of evicting her tenants. "Today was her day for the $1,000 civil penalty," Kennedy said."We haven't heard anything, so we brought her here." But, Kennedy said, Tracy Davis did get the building permit immediately after April's code enforcement hearing.

Winona Lake Sewer Bills May Rise

WINONA LAKE - Sewer bills in Winona Lake may show a slight increase according to a report the town council considered at its meeting Tuesday. The basic residential rate of $27 per month could go up to $29 per month, recommended Chuck Dalton of Umbaugh & Associates, who did a study of sewer rates for the town. Without an increase, the town's sewer budget will run at a deficit of about $20,000, he said.The $2 increase would keep the fund in the black. The rate hike, which is 7.5 percent, would be the first one in three years, Dalton said, and probably would not go into effect until the town's next coupon billing in January. The council will study the issue and hold public hearings on the rate increase before making a decision.

Vietnam-Era Marine Pilot Served 'The Float'

"Like everybody else, I did everything I could to avoid the service, to avoid the war," said Joe Conlon, 57, of his enlistment with the Corps in 1970."But they were two numbers away from me in the draft." A recent Indiana University graduate, Conlon looked around for the best deal.He found it with the U.S.Marine Corps. "They were the only ones who guaranteed, in writing, Officers Training School, and guaranteed, if I made it through OTS, I'd go to flight school.If I made it through flight school, I'd get a flying job.They gave me everything they promised. "At OTS, six weeks into basic training, I found out I wouldn't have been drafted after all." He married Joyce in November 1970 prior to attending the 18-month-long flight school training.Because of long-standing cooperation between the Corps and the Navy, Marines learn to fly at Naval Flight Schools.Of the 100 or so students who start, only 25 pass the course, said the Warsaw Community High School teacher.

Syracuse OKs Ind. 13 Plan For 3 Lanes

SYRACUSE - Rather than get nothing for their money, Syracuse Town Council opted to move ahead with a scaled back plan to widen Ind.13. Council approved plans Tuesday to forge ahead with a portion of the original expansion project through the heart of the downtown business district. Instead of progressing with the 1.6-mile stretch, the project will be limited to a five block area stretching from the CSX railroad tracks to a point past the Chicago Street intersection along Huntington Street (Ind.13). The town can keep alive the option of completing more of the project later, but that appears doubtful in the near future, given the general opposition to the original five-lane project. The trimmed down project will cost about $880,000 and the town's total cost will be about $112,000.
