Mayors urge cigarette tax to aid Ohio pension funds
Six city leaders including Cleveland Mayor Carl Stokes and Columbus official Eugene Ruehl pressed the Legislature to raise cigarette taxes by one cent to help cover interest costs on police and fire pension funds. The plan would raise about 13 million dollars annually, with 8 million for pension interest and 5 million for stabilizing future pensions. Akron Mayor Ballard announced plans for a 0.5 percent income tax increase in September to avoid large job cuts.
