June General Assembly action on a state loan program risks local liability for Elyria officials if budgets exceed mandates. The Ohio Education Association warns cuts would breach teacher contracts and could trigger lawsuits. Districts may appeal to Franklin County Common Pleas Court over the lack of a clear borrowing mandate and possible state closure actions. State officials remain silent while pressuring the district to borrow if the levy fails.
