AVON LAKE, Ohio — The former Avon Lake Power Plant, which is now vacant, has become an eyesore for residents like Sandy Batezole, who says she wants to see more.In 2022, the city said it was considering turning the land the power plant occupies into a green space.
“Maybe more restaurants. More competition. I like competition,” said Ibiza Mediterranean Grille Owner Antonio Ponce. “Just want to bring more people so they can try my very good food. I have very good Spanish and Portuguese food,” said Ponce. Since then, city leaders like Community Development Director Ted Esborn say Avon Lake has been working to redefine its Economic Recovery and Resiliency Plan in hopes of restoring what’s been lost.
