PODCAST PREVIEW: “It’s for sinister reasons to get out the vote -- 'Let’s prey on this racist fear that immigrants are going to change the balance of power in America.' It’s all a bunch of nonsense.” – editor Chris Quinn. Find the full episode here:

It just was a surprise. Sherrod brown of course came out and said he supports her decision. Although maybe he knows more than. Yeah,maybe he said, you know, he, she made a personal decision. I fully support and respect her choice. He thanked her for her service to Ohioans. It did catch the people from surprise.
The fact that illegal residents can’t vote in local and state elections, it’s already illegal in Ohio for non-citizens to vote in state and federal elections. There are laws in place for that local elections. A bit murkier. We were not really sure. You know, it’s not really included. And so people have kind of taken liberties with that yellow Springs, a little community near Dayton, amended their village charter back in 2020 to allow non-citizens to vote on local elections and tax issues.
It’s not, it’s not really an issue, but you know, they fought like hell to not have the marijuana initiative on the ballot because they don’t want a democratic cause to rally voters. But now they’re trying to come up with stuff. But we’ll bring repolarizeright. This is all about who to get to the polls for their little hot button issue of the year, [00:06:00] surprisingly, or maybe not the Ohio chamber of commerce, uh, supports this proposal.
I thought the abatement should be reduced even more in places that are thriving, because why should the developers get that kind of huge profit? But the city council is going in the opposite direction.Yeah. Good, good, good way to put it. So when we’re talking about tax abatement here, there’s different categories of, of, of properties that was looking at applying differing levels, depending on [00:09:00] how hot an areas real estate market is.
Does this get back to each council person represents a certain set of neighborhoods and they all want theirs. You know, Carrie McCormick is represents downtown, which you could argue may not need as much in the way of abatement. So is he just, no, I want mine. I want mine instead of looking at the greater good.no. I, I would think quite the opposite for that. Carrie McCormick’s been outspoken for years about even though it benefits his area. That it needs changes.
Um, so their changes would be. Addressed it at, at, at, at allowing these projects to go forward in neighborhoods like those. But, but it, it would flatten the abatement back to what it was under, you know, for the last decade or so back to the policy. It’s Ben, except for, in some instances, Ohio city Treemont, Detroit short, what university [00:13:00] circle.
Clinics campus just to the south. And obviously when you refer to this, it’s, we’re talking about $1.3 billion worth of construction projects, a couple new specific hospitals, and there aren’t exact plans for what they’re going to do with the space for the Playhouse. But they said the space is currently two carved up, not easy to reuse.
She says, though, she’s not naive enough to believe that it will pass because of Ohio super majority in the legislature. There are two ways to. State Ohio constitution. Uh, the general assembly has to propose it as a joint resolution and it must be adopted by three fifths of the members of both chambers.
And in both cases, it went through the steps as they approached having an abortion. Um, how, how they did it. I mean, it was illegal at the time, but everybody. The means could still get it done. Uh, we have other stories when we publishing, there was a group [00:19:00] of religious leaders in Cleveland that put together a hotline to counsel women with unwanted pregnancies.
You know, some of that is owed to stronger sales tax collections than what the county expected. Some of that’s owed to more property tax collections than the county expected. But a good chunk of it. According to the budget director is, you [00:21:00] know, under, under staffing when it comes to social service agencies like DCFS, the division of senior and adult services and job and family services.Yeah. They need more than 300 social workers. That’s that’s. That’s paralyzing.
The $331,500 to create the southbound [00:23:00] ramp at Miller road. That’s going to serve valor acres. And the nurse knew Sherwin Williams research and development facility, because right now there’s only northbound ramps and this one is on it’s, obviously it’s on . So they were able to work with the city to take a smaller parcel than originally envisioned.
I think that’ll be a big question. And then what happens with this road, which is still going through city council right now? I got to say there are plenty of roads that connect those there. I don’t know that you need to go through the last farm in Cuyahoga county just to make it a little easier to get to an industrial park.It’s today in Ohio. So maybe lake Catholic high school is that rare school that actually needs critical race theory as a curriculum.
