Committee to Examine Ohio’s Property Tax Burden

While Ohio lawmakers scramble to make temporary changes to Ohio’s property tax rules before year’s end, a new joint committee of the legislature will spend 2024 searching for long-term solutions to rising property taxes.

Established by the state operating budget (House Bill 33), the Committee on Property Tax Review and Reform will be able to hold hearings on pending legislation related to property taxation, according to Gongwer News Service.

Meanwhile, the conservative Buckeye Institute has written that rising property taxes “require local action” that addresses “local governments’ inefficiencies.” 12/4/2023
