Lorain approves nine-parcel site for new fire station
Lorain council approved a reduced land purchase of nine parcels at 205000 for a central fire station to replace aging downtown facilities. The 1.2 million Broadway site was debated after a 90 minute committee session with concerns over traffic, fair market value set by an outside appraiser, and a claim of favoritism regarding Donnie Barden’s properties. Bids for demolition and construction will follow, aided by a 612000 federal grant with a Dec 16 deadline.
