First federal revenue sharing check arrives
Hubbard reports its first federal revenue sharing payment for the first half of 1972 totaling 12 972. The second half is due in February or March and may be adjusted upward. Mayor Baldine chairs the Trumbull Mahoning Mayors Association and argues the formula is unfair. He cites cities with higher taxes receiving larger shares and notes Hubbard’s small income tax rate and black balance. A trust fund was set up last month as required by federal law before spending allocations.

Hubbard Passes Ordinance Aiding Mayor's Court Retention
Hubbard City Council approved an ordinance drafted by City Solicitor Richard Scullin and Mayor Joseph Baldine to seek state legislative permission to transfer contested Mayor's Court cases to municipal or county courts. The measure aims to allow Hubbard to keep its Mayor's Court which handles over $40 000 annually. It notes a recent Supreme Court ruling limiting Mayor's Courts and that many municipalities continue operating pending legislative action.
