Mild winter saves cash in Northeast Ohio
A light snowfall pattern cut salt use and snow removal costs in Lorain and Cuyahoga counties in 1986, with Lorain about 25 percent lower and Cleveland area spending $188000 less than 1985. Officials note nine days of subfreezing temps and a late surge of snow could reverse savings. Mayor Keys says crews work around the clock as winters balance out. Lorain County engineer's office cites a $115000 figure.
