Ohio Senate revamps conservancy law to curb waterways
In Columbus on February 3 a 56 page bill by Sen Abe Laird would re codify existing Ohio conservancy statutes, coordinate projects, and grant common pleas judges wide powers to approve or reject new districts. Districts would cover two or more counties with a three member board guiding them and petitions filed in the most populous county. Directors could issue notes in anticipation of bond sales. A group of 500 freeholders or over half the county landowners could petition to form a project. The measure also targets administration, funding, and district governance while readings of liquor department spending were delayed due to a missing bill copy.
