The commissioners discussed the possibility of rejecting all bids and re·

However, Prosecuting Attorney John Lentes advised the board that reject-

Two-hour parking violation
rule gets nod in Middleport
-By JIM FREEMAN
Sentinel News Staff
l\liddlepon Village Council gave
final approval to a parking ordinance
allowing police to issue a $5 ticket to
people who park more than two
hburs in cenain downtown locations.
The ordinance does not address
the problem of business owners parking in front of their businesses,
. according to Mayor Dewey "Mack"
· Hpnon. who·has criticized merchants
for taking up parking spaces he feels
should be used by their customers.
Councilman Steve Houchins said
the village has no right to keep people from parking in front of their own
stores, as long as they comply with
the two-hour parking limit.
The ordinance will take effect in
30 days. and Village Administrator
Bill Browning said the proper signs
will be installed as soon a.~ they come
in.
Council also met with representatives of Rumpke tra.~h hauling. the
company contracted by the village to
· handle waste hauling.
Council members said residents
have complained about the workers
roughing up the residents' tra.'h cans.
However. the waste haulers
rep&lt;l!'led a few problems of their own.·
including people who set out trash

after the .truck goes by - necessitating funher trips -or people wanting the workers to take their trash out
of garages or from fenced-in yards,
which they ·are not supposed to do.
"What if something comes up
missing?" one man commented.
Rumpke sends a truck back
through the village Tuesday to pick
up trash from people who did not set
out their garbage in time for Monday
morning's pick up.
·
Council members reminded village residents they should set out
their tra.~h by the curb late Sunday
night because the garbage men come
thro~gh very early Monday morning.
Honon commented on several
meetings he has attended concerning
U.S. 33 construction projects and the
Pomeroy-Mason Bridge.
- He cited a recent announcement
by- ihe Ohio Depanment of Transponation that a replacemeni for the
Pomeroy-Mason Bridge will be built
near the existing span.
"We need to attend these hearings," h~ said, commenting that public input at a bridge hearing last year
indicated the majority of people in
the Pomeroy-Middleport-Ma.wn area
want the new bridge to be built near
the existing bridge.
Clerk-treasurer Bryan Swann

commented that the price of cable

CINCINNATI (AP) - President

Chesley expects to raise close to
$1 million ti'om about 100 Democrats

"I've never seen this kind of
excitement for a visit by the president,".Chesley said. "Not just among
the people I invited. Everybody I talk
to. People like him."

Equity group wants judge to hold
state to funding solution deadline
COLUMBUS (AP) .- A group
that claims lawmakers have taken too
long and come up short in an effort
to revamp Ohio's public school funding methods says a judge should hold
the state to a coun-ordered deadline.
"It looks .to me like the state has
created a crisis and now is askinQ the
coun to bail it out ... said Wiliiam
Phillis. executive director of the Ohio
Coalition for Equity &amp; Adequacy of
School Funding.
The group a.sked Perry County
Common Pleas Judge Linton Lewis
Jr. to reject an extension last week.
arguing that the state's aim was simply to delay the process and avoid the
March 24 deadline imposed by the
Ohio Supreme Court.
The state warned Monday that
some schools may not be able to stay
open past March 24 if Lewi&gt; refuses
to extend the deadline . The state

wants the date pushed back to July I.
an idea Phillis' group is opposed to.
"If !he state understood the old
laws would die Man:h 24. which is
what the court said, then the state
should have had a plan in place." he
said.
State So licitor State Solicitor Jeffrey Sulton said m the motion filed
Monday thai holding the dead Iine
could ultimately &gt;hut down some
schools.
"The expiration of the March 24
deadline arguably means that the slate
has no current mechanism lor the distribution of funds." Suuon said.
"Many school dislri.:ls will not be
able to complete the academic year if
stale funding is interrupted ...

paying for schools unconstitutional in

Clinton administration ack nowledges
it doe.&gt;n't want to reward Russia w1th
new satelltie contracts if Moscow
continues to do busmess tn weapons

"It's not a question of the U.S
government offering an mducement

Jonathan Salter. a foretgn policy

conditton of anonym1ty:
On weapons. Chernomyrdm
insists that Russm ts sttcktng to Its
promise that the government won' t
transfer nuclear weapons and miss ile
technology to Iran. "We are true to
OU! commitments. and we shall never depart from them." he satd on
Monday as he traveled to Wa.shington.
Eigh1een of Russta's 48 satellite
launches last year were for U.S .

said Monday.
Chung. 43. actually contributed
more than $400,000 to Democratic
causes and candidates between 1994

accelerate the long-running Whitewater investigation into the president' s private land dealings and ailegations that he had an affair with former White House intern Lewinsky
and covered it up.
Today. Lott told a packed Capitol
meeting room that Starr "is doing a
great job under very difficult circumstances. " And he criticized Clin-4
ton and the White House for hindering Starr' s work with "stonewalling
and smear tactics and anack methods
being used by his attorneys and by his
allies."
Lott said he hoped Starr would
wrap up his work "sooner ralher than
later" because of the effect it is having.
