Residents object to Lorain septic permit fee amid health program
Lorain County residents urged Commissioners to halt or modify a new three year septic permit fee of 120 dollars tied to the Operation and Maintenance program run by Lorain County Public Health. A resident called the fee robbery as officials note it applies to about 20 000 systems countywide and extends over three years with a 40 dollar annual amount. The health department extended the January 31 deadline for those unable to pay on time.
