Grafton to lower proposed work fee
Village council will rewrite the tradesmen registration ordinance after Don Barber objected to a $25 fee calling it taxing a man to work. Mayor Toghill notes similar fees in other communities and discusses a possible $1 to $3 range. The council also passed a moratorium on new residential subdivisions until utilities expand and awarded Atlas Electric the $29,840 contract for electric lines in England Estates and Pine Grove. The rewrite to lower the registration fee and the clean-up days are scheduled for May 14 15 and 16.

Ex-hospital consultant fired over failed plan for Stow center
Ross Garrett, once hired in December 1970 to plan a 32.5 million regional health care center in Stow, was fired last Thursday by the Stow City Council. He owed Lorain Community Hospital 64,815 dollars for an overpayment tied to an eight million dollar expansion. Garrett stood to gain 5,000 as an initial fee and 210,800 upon completion, with a similar loss in North Olmsted last year when a medical center project was rejected. The hospital will seek repayment, while the council notes the project’s completion remains uncertain.
