South tforwalk TEmplfl Marshall Gans, chairman of the Norwalk Parking authority, said today "his agency has been forced to extend the date of opening of the Haviiand street parking lot downtown and the Isaac street facilities uptown until about Sept.

IS. chairman explained the authority to grant -Daniel Deering company, contractor who is grading and surfacing tbe two areas, additional time because of the delay caused by the heavy rainfall in recent weeks.
