Runaway shelter site mulled with growing local opposition
Medina officials weigh bids for a W Liberty Street runaway shelter for youths run by Medina County Youth Services. A single $700 monthly bid on a home at 220 W Liberty St drew steady opposition from nearby residents citing traffic safety and property value concerns. The program seeks to house and counsel up to 10 youths at a time with a $72,000 federal grant and $8,000 local match.
