Sheffield Lake to ballot 2-mill library levy in November
Sheffield Lake votes 5 to 1 to place a five year 2-mill library levy on the November ballot to raise about 43000 annually for the Domonkas Branch, funded by a $1 yearly tax per $1000 of assessed property value. The measure aims to keep the branch open year round and is part of the Lorain library system. The council also filled a vacant council-at-large seat appointing Dave Hibbard, who will chair employee relations as finances loom.
