Lorain delays decision on solid waste disposal plan
Lorain will wait and study disposal options as it rejects the county proposal as too costly. Mayor Joseph Zahorec notes the city could operate the dump at about 1 per ton while losing about 300,000 a year in revenue from outside haulers. The long haul would require two daily trips per shift and tie up five to six workers for over two hours, raising overall costs.
