Courthouse Heating Plant Proves Inadequate In Frigid Weather
Lorain County courthouse employees and citizens endured freezing conditions as the heating plant failed to cope with a February cold snap. The treasurer's office remained near freezing early, then rose to 60 degrees by 9 a.m., while the large courtroom was unusable due to the cold. Some workers used heat lamps or wore coats and scarves, and a judge's session moved to a smaller room. Custodian Al Sperry blamed the boiler for not meeting demand.
