Tuesday, Nov. 9, 1976, News-Herald 5 ater, sewer lack blocks shopping center Cheek said he did not know when the center would be built Plans for the shopping center call for a Great Scot store and several other stores. "It will depend on how this water question is ever resolved and what is required of us by the health departments." Cheek said he felt if there was a public water supply in the area, "it would be a very strong step." He noted if there was a public water supply, it might be possible for Great Scot to construct its own sewage facility. Property where the proposed shopping center is to be built is on the proposed Catawba water line, a project which has become bogged down in court action and the action of two of the present county commissioners. built in the near future.

Cheek told the News-Herald today the company still had plans to build In the location if the question of water and sewage could ever be resolved. "We would have built there several years ago when we purchased the property, if it hadn't been for the question of water and sewage." He stated the cost of building a water and sewage plant for the shopping facility would have been too expensive to be feasible. "A lack of public water and sewage in the area isn't only stopping our center, it is stopping industry from coming in," he stated. "I know this personally." "There Is good potential for development there and plenty of land, but until there is public water and sewage, there can be no industrial development." Only a lack of public water and sewage facilities is delaying the building of a shopping center on property at the intersection of State Routes 163 and 53 behind the Port Clinton National Bank branch, according to Carroll W. Cheek, chairman of the board of Great Scot, Inc.

of Flndlay. CWC of which Cheek is also president, purchased the property several years ago and announced plans to build a Great Scot facility there, but the plans became stalled when state and local health department regulations proved too demanding and expensive concerning water and sewage disposal, according to Cheek. Last week, the property was transferred from CWC Co. to Great Scot, Inc. again raising the question of whether a shopping lacility was to be Commissioners Helen Rofkar and Harry Johnson have filed an appeal in the Ohio Supreme Court against the ruling by the Sixth District Court of Appeals which upheld an order from the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency to proceed with the project.

Although both commissioners have been working for the past year and a half to stall the proposed project, they have also made application for 100 per cent public works funding for the project, stating their main opposition to the water project is the cost. Continued delay in the proposed water project has resulted in the cost of the project to rise to the point it has completely swallowed the $1 million Housing and Urban Development grant which has been designated for the project. et annual fair meeting What suggestions do you have for improving the Ottawa County Fair?

But decades of neglect followed, and by 1969 there were filth and mice where gold and silver had glinted. Now, after a renovation project that took four years and cost $4.5 million, the Mint is reopening as a showpiece that includes offices, computers and a museum.

And the Mint is celebrating with a display of gold worth as much as it cost to fix the place up. Centerpiece of the display is a one-of-a-kind 1907 $20 gold piece insured for $1 million. There are also gold bars and nuggets worth more than $3.5 million, along with other reminders of this city's flamboyant days as a center for gold-hungry fortune hunters. The coin, on loan from the Amark Coin Co. of Los Angeles, bears an Indian head double eagle design which was rejected by President Theodore Roosevelt in favor of a Liberty design.

Among the other items are a miner's cabin brought intact from the Mother Lode gold fields, a Wells Fargo stagecoach and minting machinery once used to make coins out of gold and ore. The Mint opened in 1874. It was designed by Treasury architect Alfred B. Mullett, who also designed the old Executive Office Building next to the White House. Until 1937 it was one of three mints in the country, and during that time it stamped out one and one-third billion coins.

Then a larger Mint opened two miles away, and the old granite structure was used for federal offices. By the 1960s it was deteriorating badly, and proposals for its use ranged from a downtown annex for San Francisco State University to a West Coast branch of the Smithsonian Institution. U.S. Mint Director Mary Brooks decided in 1969 that the building should be restored as an historic, but functioning landmark. She said she was appalled the first time she looked inside.

"When I walked into the front rooms where they used to receive gold and silver bullion, I couldn't believe how dirty it was," she recalled. "There were mice. Dirt was everywhere." Classified Ads Get Garter smooths his way with Congressmen ATLANTA(AP) President-elect Jimmy Carter already, has personally contacted most congressional leaders in an effort to smooth the way for his administration and the legislative programs he will offer later. Among those contacted are chieftains of the powerful tax-writing committees. One such leader, Sen.

Russell Long, chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, says Carter's congressional liaison man "is ready to meet" for talks on the President-elect's tax reform plans. Rep. AI Ullman, chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee, where all tax laws originate, also has been contacted, and Carter is making plans to meet with top House and Senate leaders. Frank Moore, Carter's liaison with Congress, said the President-elect made many contacts before the election, starting with the leadership and key committee chairmen. "He's still calling.

He's down to the subcommittee level now," Moore said in interview at Carter headquarters here. Moore said Carter also plans the same kind of personal contacts with some of the Republican leadership and ranking GOP committee members. One reason for Carter's swift movement is the deadline facing him if he hopes to get his own stamp on the government soon. The first test is to have his budget proposals before Congress by mid-February or live with the budget proposals that President Ford will submit in January. Since Carter's budget alternatives cannot be suddenly sprung on Congress in February if they hope to pass in the spring or summer, the groundwork already is being laid.

It has been Moore's job to seek out congressional views on such things as economic legislation and to discover legislators who might work with the Carter camp in anticipating options now for future legislation. Carter aides are known to have been working with interested Hill leaders on the prospect of an economic stimulus, such as a tax cut, if the economy is still lagging in January when he takes office. Another topic on which Moore said Congress is being brought in is the some 2,200 administraton jobs the new president must fill by appointment. No fewer than 878 of them are subject to Senate approval. Moore said that although the Senate and House leaders most involved in tax legislation are by no means sold on any Carter plan at this point, they are at least willing to talk.

Moore also predicted "a general attitude up there for some reorganization. Congress already has been moving in that direction. "The internal leadership in the House and Senate is strong," Moore said, "and when they can get an executive they can work with, I imagine they will be willing to give up some things if it's necessary to make the government more manageable."
