Lorain mayor fundraiser sparks local outrage in Westlake
About a dozen Lorain residents protested a $500 per plate fundraiser for Mayor Craig Foltin held at the Mosaica restaurant in Westlake. The luncheon drew roughly 50 regional business figures including Forest City Enterprises’ Sam Miller and George Group’s Tony George, as Foltin defends the event as convenient for out‑of‑town developers while critics say funds should stay in Lorain. Foltin notes many donors live outside Lorain and that his other events remain in city limits as he aims for a $200,000 goal for his 2003 reelection bid.
