County water sewer survey may get funds
Lorain County planning officials say EPA planning grants could fund a county wide water and sewer survey with about 100000 cost. HUD would provide 55000 and EPA may match 345000 with 75 percent federal funds for 25 percent local. Rural district backers seek signatures to file court petition for formation. FHA funds may come as loans rather than grants and local timing is tight before July 1.
