MEADVILLE – Conneaut Lake Park is headed for a tax sale.  The Crawford County Commissoners on Wednesday unanimously approved a measure that will set into motion the necessary steps to sell off the park property to pay down what is now an 877-thousand dollar tax debt. 

Commissioners at the Wednesday meeting said they did receive a plan from the board of trustees, but it only involved paying current taxes, and asked for a delay in paying down the past debt.  That plan was rejected by the county commissioners.

MEADVILLE – One thing’s for sure… it wasn’t the weather that kept people away from the polls in Crawford County yesterday.  Just 13-percent of Democrats and 17-percent of Republicans bothered to show up to vote.  Melanie Mushrush is director of elections for the county.

“We have approximately 52-thousand registered voters in the county.  And 15-percent of that just doesn’t get it.  I’ve been doing this for six years now, and this is the worst I’ve ever seen.”
