Water board divided after pay vote and McConnell removal
The Rural Lorain County Water Authority split over paying board members for two meetings. A prior May 15 vote to remove Pittsfield Township Trustee Mark McConnell used a secret ballot, which critics say violated Ohio law. The board later approved $85.60 each for the May 15 and May 22 meetings, defending the revote as necessary to avoid improper optics.
