Rhodes tax plan splits Ohio lawmakers on inner city exemptions
Gov. Rhodes proposes 25 year tax exemptions for new and expanded industries locating in inner city Ohio, seeking a constitutional amendment. Democrats and Republicans adopt a wait and see stance as concerns arise about revenue loss and impact on existing firms. Fauver supports the concept while Batchelder notes private housing plans and questions about non inner city effects. The plan aims for a June ballot with three more amendments to come and must pass by March 5 to stay on track.
