County bids win Elyria post office for $125000
U S Postal Service preliminarily accepts Lorain County’s $125000 offer for the former Elyria Broad Street post office. The building likely will house board of elections offices and other county agencies, ending Elyria’s hopes to buy for municipal courts while saving taxpayers from a bidding war. County officials say the site will be used promptly. Mayor Keys and Safety Director Hoagland voiced tempered satisfaction, noting the county’s faster action and utilitarian use.
