Premises liability law is the body of law which makes the person who is in possession of land or premises responsible for certain injuries suffered by persons who are present on the premises. Cases involving people who have suffered an injury may include slip and fall accidents, injuries from inadequate maintenance, dangerous conditions that are not repaired or warned of, or injuries from inadequate security on a property.
Oberlin is a city in Lorain County, Ohio, United States, to the south and west of Cleveland. Oberlin is perhaps best known for being the home of Oberlin College, a liberal arts college and music conservatory with approximately 3,000 students. The town is also the birthplace of the Anti-Saloon League. The second largest employer in Oberlin (after the eponymous College) is the Federal Aviation Administration, which houses an Air Route Traffic Control Center in the town. Cleveland Air Route Traffic Control Center is one of the most transitioned air traffic control centers in the country, and oversees the airspace over six states and a small part of Canada. Oberlin is governed by a city manager and a seven-member council which is elected to two-year terms in a non-partisan election. The current Oberlin city manager is Eric Norenberg. The current City Council is President Kenneth Sloane, Vice President Sharon Fairchild-Soucy, H. Scott Broadwell, Bryan Burgess, Elizabeth Meadows, Charles Peterson, and Kate Pilacky. The population was 8,195 at the 2000 census.
