Elyria Council Overturns Mayor on Schaden Road Issue
Elyria City Council voted to vacate a 1725 acre Schaden Road area along the B and O tracks to allow Milan Steel Corp to build a new fabricating plant. Mayor Reichlin had vetoed it but council overturned at his request after receiving a letter from attorney L K Ashenbach. Ashenbach said Milan Steel would deed land currently used for sewer and water lines and would fund storm sewer, paving and sewer connections if the city clears the right of way. The decision includes plans for a future east west connector with Lake Avenue and Rt 57. In other business, the council rezoned 92 acres annexed from Carlisle township from residential to city A 1A. The site lies along Abbe Road north of Chestnut Ridge Road.

Vanik Pledges Law to Cap Great Lakes Water Levels
Rep. Charles Vanik announces drafting legislation to fix a maximum water level for the Great Lakes. He argues a mandate for the Great Lakes Commission would curb flooding and shoreline erosion while aligning with navigation and power needs. Lake Erie is forecast to set a record high this year. Rep. Mosher says he will consider reviewing the proposal.
