Lorain lawmaker clashes over erosion plan at Century Park
Lorain councilman Edmond Skimin challenges Mayor Parker over the Army Corps of Engineers plan to reclaim erosion at Century Park. Parker says he notified the Corps to avoid losing federal aid, while Skimin seeks an extension to push for a study of breakwalls and shoreline impact before committing city funds. The Corps would study options costing 650000 to 850000 with up to 30 percent city share, aiming to start construction in 1985 after an Oct 1 study.
