Middletown Journal historic weekly publishes in 1857 with ANN HOFFER? No, ANN HOFFMAN as publisher and M. DAVID GOODWIN as editor along with MICHAEL WILLIAMS handling the Editorial Page.
Editorial urges a yes on a 1.5 mill fire levy to fund fire services and a charter vote on restoring a 0.5 percent income tax credit for residents who work outside Trenton. A yes on the tax credit equals no extra tax from the city. a no on the credit means higher local taxes. The piece notes potential cuts if the charter amendment passes and endorses the fire levy while urging clear public choice.
In a blunt comparison, Ohio lawmakers and interest groups push for ballot measures on taxes, school funding, redistricting, and campaign finance. The piece warns that broad ballot access could spark a November election with unpredictable outcomes and cites past misworded measures like gay marriage. Darren Dany, News, April 28.
Readers debate the state funding method for schools, defend Dr. Price, and criticize legislators for Band-Aid fixes. Christopher Wells praises Middletown coaches and urges May 3 unity, while a retired school board member recalls deficits and urges a five year 6.9 mill levy and informed voting.
Voters in Butler County hear from educators and residents urging support for local school funding on May 3. They cite reduced per pupil spending, district gains, and the need for a fair state formula, urging action from the Legislature and opposition to blanket levy defeats.
