AVON
Avon will lose $2.15 million in federal funding after state legislators changed how they would distribute federal COVID relief funds to include 1,305 townships in the windfall.
Avon is one of dozens of cities across Ohio affected by the change, which became law when Gov. Mike DeWine signed HB 168 on June 29.
In May before the cut was announced, Avon was projected to receive nearly $4.6 million of the $844 million allocated for Ohio, Finance Director Bill Logan said. Now, the city will receive around $2.45 million.
âWe were starting to plan out some different projects we could do with that money,â Logan said. âAnd now we donât have it, so weâre probably going to back off on some projects.â

In his lawsuit, Abbott alleged that the fiscal officer didn’t produce requested public records in compliance with the legal obligation to do so. He’s seeking statutory damages, court costs and legal fees.
The matter is related to a four-month investigation confirming allegations of workplace harassment committed by Abbott. Messages left by cleveland.com to Abbott’s attorney, Benjamin J. Yoder, were not returned.
