State weighs lifting cap on Ohio Homestead tax break
Ohio may raise or adjust the Homestead exemption for seniors as bills to raise the income cap to 23,000 and tie to inflation advance. The current 20,800 limit has reduced the relief, with 1,367 homeowners in Cuyahoga County losing the exemption last year.

North Olmsted Finance Director push for higher assistant finance director salary
Finance Director Carrie Copfer questions whether City Council truly aims to improve city finances or offers lip service. She says the $95,000 maximum for the new assistant finance director is too low and proposes a market range of $45,000 to $60,000 with hiring in the low to mid 50s. Legislation to approve the position and salary is before the Finance Committee after last month’s appropriations hearings. Copfer notes entry level pay at major firms starts around $35,000, urges a four year accounting finance degree and four to six years’ experience, and asks Council to reconsider the range if strong candidates are not attracted.
