Elyria and Lorain are teaming with Lorain County to seek federal funds for extra sanitary sewer lines as the Lorain County Regional Airport grows.

The panel also backed a $5 000 to $7 000 water main extension to enable future airport taps and protested a 7 percent Ohio Edison rate hike for residents and small businesses.
