Wage freeze eyed for sheriff's dept
In Elyria a wage freeze for the Lorain County Sheriff's Department is proposed after two suits seek to block the layoff of 37 workers. David Ferry of the Deputies Association says the union discussed forgoing a 4 percent raise from 1992 to ease budget strain. Sheriff Martin J Mahony says a wage freeze would help but not solve the deficit, noting about $180,000 would be saved and that layoffs only cut half the shortfall. The plan was discussed with Ferry, the Employees Association president, lawyers, and prosecutors.
