LORAIN — The project to bring a limestone grinding mill to the industrial park on Lorain’s east side is on hold.
”The project is on hold from Carmeuse (Lime & Stone),” Mayor Anthony Krasienko said last night, adding that the city hasn’t received official in writing.
When Carmeuse acquired Oglebay Norton, Carmeuse was examining its needs for facilities, Krasienko said. Until that assessment is made, the project is on hold.
Giardini said the reevaluation has a direct correlation to the slow housing construction market. Crushed limestone is used in many different building materials, including wallboard, paint and the backing on roof shingles, he explained.
