Elyria weighs tax vote impact on Fire Department staffing
Elyria officials warn that a May vote against a 0.25 income tax increase could cut fire department officers from 17 to 14, leaving three fire stations with reduced shifts. Current staffing falls short of the city ordinance target of 1.97 firefighters per officer and 61 firefighters overall. If the levy passes in November, 12 new firefighters could be hired to reach 49, lowering overtime costs.
