Elyria Lorain rail study eyed for commuter link
Community Development Director Jon Kiner urged withholding a vote until Lorain officials decide funding. County commissioners will not cover extra line costs, Elrich says, seeking funds from other groups if Elyria and Lorain decline. Councilman Grace argues taxes pay for part of the bus line and warns against paying twice as the plan to connect Ashtabula to Elyria proceeds. The Northeast Ohio Areawide Coordinating Agency studies feasibility, with completion in two years and potential operation after 15 years. Grace urges council and administration to back the project.
