Norwalk / Huron County: Development and News
Courthouse project to cost $1.5 million By MATT HUTTON - Reflector Staff Writer | Thursday March 08 2007, 1:34pm The Huron County Courthouse is slated for some internal surgery this summer a $1.5 million project to make the courthouse and county office buildings more energy efficient. The commissioners accepted bids this week from Industrial Power Systems, of Toledo, for about $1.2 million for the mechanical work and Atlas Electrical Construction, of Elyria, for about $220,000 for the electrical work. The total also includes about 10 percent for "contingency" or emergency costs. The project includes new boilers for the courthouse, the treasurer's building and the recorder's building, all located on Main Street. The courthouse also will get new air conditioning and more energy efficient lighting. The commissioners originally had estimated the project would cost $965,000. But initial bids received came back in the $2 million range. The scope of the project has been pared down and contractors will do work during normal business hours, rather than in the evening. The bulk of the work will take place between June 15 and Aug. 15 and the court will likely seek an alternate location to operate in during that time.

I've been on X-Flight a couple of times and I really liked that coaster (the flying part is amazing).........too bad they're sending it down I-71..............nonetheless, I'd recommend it (on the off chance that the ride isn't broken down or something LOL) Maybe CF envisions just having a water park for Geauga Lake..........I hope not!

Miami of OH has some very nice old Greek homes! There is nothing like that here at Northern Illi University. Our Greek Row is on Hillcrest Drive and Blackhawk Boulevard..........with street names like those, you don't even need pics to realize that the Greek homes are suburban developments (actually, cruddy apartment-esque structures from the 70's and 80's)! :(
