Council grills administration over two new dump trucks
Elyria Republicans accused the administration of misleading the council about the need for two additional dump trucks. They cited three trucks in the street department garage, two with salt spreaders, unused for four months, while two more were purchased on the administration’s urging. The mayor said driver shortages keep the trucks idle but could be needed during future guardrail work. He would study possible transfers if not required by the street department.
