Commissioners OK first quarter budget cuts in Elyria
Elyria county commissioners Lori Kokoski and Ted Kalo approved about 2.4 million in general fund cuts for 2012. Republican Tom Williams opposed, citing a 2013 deficit projection of 10.5 million and seeking deeper cuts. They also asked Probate Judge James Walther to authorize using proceeds from the sale of the old Green Acres orphanage to fund the 4-H program via the OSU Extension Office in New Russia Township. Williams noted about 36,000 was raised from a December gala and aid is needed until alternate funding is found. The orphanage was sold to Oberlin for 265,000 earlier this year.
