High school tax would hit economic district
Elyria Township voters approved a Joint Economic Development District with the city to fund a new Elyria High School via a 0.75 percent renewable income tax. The tax would raise the wage tax to 2.50 per $100 earned for employees in the JEDD, with 80 percent to the city and 20 percent to the township. Officials say funds must support the JEDD area and may cover sewers, parks, and the new school, easing burden on seniors and fixed incomes.
