Cities Lose Suit Against Sewer District

Court rules sewer fee is not an unlawful tax

A court ruled Thursday that the Northeast Ohio Regional Sewer District's fee for a regional stormwater management system is legal, according to the NEORSD website.

Strongsville was among the cities fighting the fee.

The average homeowner will pay about $57 additional per year for the system, which is designed to protect communities from flooding, NEORSD adds.
