Rhodes seeks new Department to control crime fight in Ohio
Governor Rhodes proposes a Department of Public Safety to place the Bureau of Identification, Consumer Frauds, Ohio Peace Officer Training Council and other crime agencies under his command. He would abolish the Department of Highway Safety and move the Bureau of Motor Vehicles to Commerce, with patrol, fire marshal and civil defense also in the new cabinet entity. The plan, welcomed by some insiders as a move toward a Senate bid, accompanies other education and planning reforms and a call for a state planning office to coordinate federal funds and state resources.
