Lorain mayor may restore officers as income tax collections improve. Detective Gene Taliano of the Fraternal Order of Police says 17 laid off officers could be reinstated with extra funds, prioritizing police over firefighters. Officials note current collections are higher than last year, but funds are tied to a Blue Cross rate hike and future trends.
