Sheriff opposes Grafton annexation of Eaton Township strip
Lorain County Sheriff Phil Stammitts publicly opposes Grafton’s plan to annex a narrow 20 foot by 1,300 foot strip in Eaton Township. He emails Eaton Township Trustee Jason Monschein that the move lacks credible justification beyond potential tax gains and calls it an attempt to extend village boundaries to include more properties and Midview Schools. Village officials say they have no intent to annex the campus and aim to conform boundaries, noting the strip was acquired in 2013 from North Grafton Realty and touches only one parcel.
