Elyria Slum Housing Sparks Debate Over Private Homes
Elyria councilman James Anton laments lack of $40,000 to $50,000 private homes in the city, noting a growth of low and moderate income apartments outside jurisdiction. He cites easy financing for apartments and the need for market demand for higher bracket homes amid economic pressures and upcoming I 90 improvements. Republican criticism of street department trucks follows as Democrats allege secret meetings aimed to harm administration, while Akron’s urban redevelopment staff size prompts concern for Elyria’s own department.
