County welfare costs rise under new state laws
Lorain County Welfare Director Gerard Prinz says the 1966 welfare law shifts more costs to county and city general funds. Under the new plan the state takes all public utility taxes and pays 75 percent of poor relief costs, leaving 25 percent to local governments. Local costs are estimated at about $186,968 for the county and cities, plus $25,602 for non-federal welfare programs. Offsets include roughly $113,000 yearly from a county tax levy for Aid to Dependent Children and potentially higher federal coverage of medical costs.
