Lorain County expects a dramatic increase in real estate taxes in 1977 after a mandatory six year reappraisal now under way.

The panel discussed optional taxes including a half per cent piggy back sales tax likely to raise about $3 million annually, plus real estate transfer and utility taxes. Commissioners weighed need for funds against voter referendums and noted federal revenue sharing.
