Lorain County Jail faces delays in opening
Lorain County plans to open a new jail replacing the old Elyria facility but water power and equipment problems delay it for months. Commissioners and Sheriff Vernon M. Smith will meet Tuesday to address the issues. The bond funded project seeks federal aid for more cells and staff. A 0.75 mill levy for the jail and juvenile bureau on the November ballot would raise about $900,000 yearly for salaries and operating costs.

North Ridgeville voters rejected a 4.9 mill operating levy by 1,370 to 417 in a special election. A smaller 4.9 mill levy for November was proposed to cover a deficit and prevent school closings. Board member Porter urged reducing the November millage to 2.9, aiming for about $181,000 next year and to fund more teachers as enrollment strains grow.
