Repeal Debate Sees Teachers Warn Of Tax Change
Three dozen Federal Hocking School District teachers heard that repealing the state income tax in November would be a Robin Hood in reverse. John Davis of the Athens County Committee warned that loss of 526.9 million in state revenue would force tax shifts to flat taxes, hurting those least able to pay. W. Eugene Brundige urged educator action through EPAC to influence the Ohio legislature.

Injunction Halts Land Leasing by Ohio University
Ohio University and the Department of Public Works face a temporary injunction delaying land leases on three parcels of the former airport site on E State Street. Judge Jay Flowers in Franklin County Common Pleas Court approved the measure, with Kroger Co joining as co-defendant against leasing to Kroger’s rivals. The injunction allows negotiations to continue, requires a legal finding on leases, and schedules further hearings within about 60 days.
