Elyria’s share of funds for an countywide anti drug drive was postponed as the city council finance committee referred a $7,431 county request to another committee for study. The plan, an $89,000 program funded 60 percent by federal sources and 40 percent by local governments, covers drug education rehabilitation and enforcement. Lorain County Prosecutor Joseph R Grunda outlined the drive last month. John V Bara said the spending question would move forward, with local approval expected, as last week Lorain City Council approved a similar request.

Officials foresee up to 40,000 new arrivals this year as families bring only a crate and 3000 in cash per person.
