State of Ohio Solves Toilet Paper Problem

State of Ohio Development Dept. has awarded a $12,500 grant to the EZ Corp. for toilet paper. Company officials had warned that it could shut down as early as June 1 without the state’s help.

EZ officials said that 50 jobs could have been lost if its facility could not remain open due to improper toilet facilities. It had been warned by city officials that health considerations could not be ignored.

It’s expected that the $12,500 could provide job security for at least 18 months, according to officials.

“With the job situation in Ohio as it is, we couldn’t avoid to allow EZ’s facility to shut down,” said an Ohio economic development official.

“It’s about saving jobs,” he said.
