Avon Lake Voters Decide Future of Power Plant Site | Cleveland News
Description
Avon Lake’s future lakefront power plant site is headed for a public vote this fall after residents petitioned to require community approval for any rezoning or tax increment financing deals. The city council recently approved mixed-use zoning—allowing apartments, shops, and entertainment—with restrictions on big-box stores and single-family homes. Advocates argue the land’s value demands public oversight before major decisions are made. While the city hasn’t yet purchased the property, locals are eager for family-friendly development, local businesses, and restaurants. The petition is now under review by the Lorain County Board of Elections, setting the stage for a potential ballot showdown.
