Countersuit possible as Ridgeville repeals ordinance
North Ridgeville council repealed a 1979 cluster status ordinance tied to Westerlies Parklands developments amid a pending May 1979 suit. The repeal cites unconstitutionality and ambiguity, potentially paving the way for a countersuit by North Ridge Investment. The action followed discussions over zoning, emergency passage, and the city’s loss of certain powers.

Steel layoffs threaten four day Lorain city workers week
Lorain could switch to a four day work week for city employees if the 1982 budget remains balanced. Ward Six Councilman Victor Wlaszyn says layoffs at Lorain Cuyahoga Works could rise from 1,100 to 2,700, prompting a 20 percent cut to the Parker budget and a push to avoid a new income tax increase. He notes lost income tax revenue from layoffs and warns further furloughs would erode the tax base. Council reviews budget this week with public hearings set for next week and ongoing sessions until approval.
