Medina Fire Plans Overnight Staffing Trial With Lifesaving Team
Medina Fire Chief Bob Painter outlined a trial for overnight staffing at Cleveland Clinic Medina Hospital from midnight to 8 am Monday through Friday starting November 9. Two firefighters and two Life Support Team medics would operate, with Engine 1 remaining at the station for quick response. Painter aims to assess cost effectiveness, reduce overnight response times from nine to about nine minutes, and notes LST medics are also trained firefighters. The plan uses existing budgets and involves a partnership with LST, with dormitories at 1000 E. Washington St.

Westfield Township sewer dispute with Medina County over service area
Westfield Township faces an impasse with Medina County as several development projects cannot connect to the county sewer system due to the Chippewa Lake Waste Water Treatment Plant service area. Township officials say the uncertainty hinders local zoning and the Greenwich Road corridor, while county officials note decades of discussions showing no commitment to extending service and point to on-site treatment as the designated approach.

Flow control delays Medina County solid waste plan
Brunswick City Council halted the Medina County Solid Waste Plan on a 6-1 vote amid concerns over flow control and cost. Service Director Paul Barnett notes flow control has run in the county for over 20 years since the Seville Material Recovery Facility. If not ratified by 60 percent county population, the county and Brunswick must defer to the Ohio EPA, with the plan extending five years if approved by Nov. 23.
