County Chamber Emerges From Local Biz Rivalries
Lorain and Elyria leaders say a county wide chamber has formed and handles regional economic development while the two communities retain their own chambers. The merger idea is dead, and interim director Richard Elliott will stay another year while bylaws and budget are reviewed. Local programs like industrial visitation move to the county chamber, but Elyria Apple Fest and downtown Christmas lighting stay with their respective cities. The groups urge unity in marketing the county and preserving local identity amid past rivalries.
