Toledo Economy Suffers After Water Ban

Restaurants bore the most immediate brunt of the economic impact as they lost thousands of dollars by closing Saturday and Sunday or resorted to serving food on paper plates to stay open. The cityโ€™s tourism sector, which emphasizes sports and activities on Lake Erie, also felt the sting.
