Pay-to-stay to offset jail costs in Elyria

Oberlin considers one year moratorium on rooming houses
Oberlin City Council proposes a year long ban on licensing new rooming houses to study zoning limits and fire code concerns. The measure follows concerns of unchecked student housing expansion amid uninspected houses and a pending $750000 suit by five landlords over a college letter warning about unlicensed homes. Planning officials will lead the study with the Housing Renewal Commission and Council, and the moratorium excludes currently licensed homes and those with license applications filed before the ordinance take effect.
