The plant at 3100 E 31st St lies in Sheffield Village just outside Lorain city limits, delaying the deal before an emergency Lorain CIC meeting.

Middleburg Heights officials sue to nullify remapping
Middleburg Heights mayor Gary W. Starr and three councilmen sue in U.S. District Court claiming Ohio's new congressional boundaries are unconstitutional and arbitrary. They argue suburbs and urban areas should not share a single representative, noting the shift into Rep. Mary Rose Oakar's district in Cleveland's west side under the new 20th District. A separate Columbus residents' motion to intervene seeks to block the plan and allow the court to redraw districts, as Republican suit colleagues push to maintain the post remap slate ahead of April 5 candidate filings.
