CFA has busy day, including fight against State Bill 43

Mar. 1—JEFFERSON — The Ashtabula County Convention Facilities Authority had a busy morning Friday dealing with a variety of issues facing the organization. Authority members discussed the best way to fight State Bill 43, which was recently introduced by State Senator Sandra O'Brien. The bill seeks to do away with a 2% bed tax that was passed many years ago before the construction of the Lodge at Geneva-on-the-Lake. kAm~'qC:6? 96=A65 86E DE2E6 >@?6J E@ A2J @77 E96 S'c >:==:@? 563E @?
