1996 – Another effort by representatives of the City-County Athletic Complex failed to win any financial support from the county despite a campaign that showed the facility is used by much of the county.

Dec. 3, 1990 – Fire at Center Lake Pavilion in Warsaw has put a damper on the facility’s holiday activities.

A Sunday morning blaze caused $100,000 damage to the pavilion, forcing city officials to close the building and cancel events scheduled for December.

Dec. 1, 1989 – Work on the Bob Evans restaurant at Center Center Plaza, Warsaw, is now on hold and may remain that way for the next 30 days.

Construction on the bright red building was halted Nov. 16 when officials noticed the ground settling. To get a better handle on the problem, and to investigate what, if anything, needs to be done, laborers were sent off the job. Work was scheduled to start up again early this week, but it didn’t happen.
