Elyria faces bond hurdle for airport funding
City auditors and officials worry that Squire, Sanders and Dempsey may not approve $186,000 in general obligation bonds to cover Elyria’s one third share of airport costs. FAA official Keith Muir said lack of funds could cancel federal participation of about $319,000, though FAA may allow delays. Haywood expects an unfavorable opinion citing Ohio Revised Code restrictions on funding airports, not highways. Page 4.
