County seeks hold on local fund line
Lorain County officials seek to protect its share of the local government fund by urging removal of the 81 percent eligibility cap. Commissioner President Ludwig M. Pincura will present the case at the Ohio County Commissioners Association taxation committee in Columbus, warning a 1970 census shift could cut the county’s share from about 50 percent to 30 percent, risking 300 000 to 400 000 dollars. A second note reports that by 1985 the median U S family income is projected to reach 14700 dollars from 8600 in 1968.
