    Ohio City Lays Off First Responders

    Dec. 23, 2009
    WARRENSVILLE HEIGHTS, Ohio -- The city of Warrensville Heights is facing a $2.5 million deficit. City leaders laid off eight service department employees, seven firefighters and two police dispatchers. A tax levy that passed didn't generate enough money to cover the shortfall. Also, Warrensville Heights will still be more than $1 million in the red next year. Copyright 2009 by NewsNet5. All rights reserved.
