Ohioans have told lawmakers they need to do something about increasing property taxes. While a grassroots effort to put a constitutional amendment before voters to abolish property taxes works to collect petition signatures, a number of other bills and proposals are taking shape at the Statehouse. One of those bills would reduce property tax collections by $3.5 billion is getting pushback. House Bill 335 would eliminate the 1% property tax value that schools and local governments can levy without voter approval. It's known as inside millage. The bill is sponsored by Republican state Representative David Thomas of Jefferson, in Ashtabula County. Schools and local governments say the bill would be cataclysmic for school staffing and public services. Property taxes and what to do about them begins this week's discussion of news on the “Sound of Ideas Reporters Roundtable.”

You can't keep a good girl down. What would depress and ruin many, she used as a flotation device to give her purpose and direction. Listen to this Centennial graduate and Champaign native talk about a 98' boating accident on Clinton Lake, seeking justice without any resolution, finding and using prosthetics, taking an athletic background and finding a new outlet with sitting volleyball, her incredible Paralympics history, her engagement and her current position for the City of Champaign. Wrong place, wrong time, wrong crowd, I can think of a hundred near-miss moments like the one Nichole describes on the lake that summer. She isn't defined by that boat ride, however, she is defined by strength, athleticism and now love...................................................................Please, please subscribe (so you know when new episodes drop) and share!

From the BG Ad Group Studio this is your news minute on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast presented by Credit Union of Georgia. Today is Wednesday, July 24th, and I'm Keith Ippolito. Cobb Passes $1.3 Billion Budget, Keeps Millage Rate Flat in Partisan Votes The Cobb County Board of Commissioners has made a significant budget decision. Despite public calls for a rollback in the millage rate and reductions in the general fund budget, the Board voted to pass a $1.3 billion budget and maintain the current millage rate. The vote was split along partisan lines, with a 3-2 outcome. Commissioners Keli Gambrill and JoAnn Birrell, both Republicans, opposed the budget and millage rate, citing concerns over excess revenue collection. While the tax rates will stay flat at 8.46 mills for the general fund and 2.99 mills for the fire fund, rising home values will result in an additional $22.6 million in general fund property tax revenue and $11.7 million more for the fire fund compared to last year. Chairwoman Lisa Cupid highlighted the importance of understanding the numbers tied to the budget's "impact items," which include an $8.4 million step-and-grade plan for public safety personnel.

MDJ Script/ Top Stories for July 16th Publish Date: July 16th Commercial: From the Ingles Studio, Welcome to the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast. Today is Tuesday, July 16th and Happy 57th Birthday to actor Will Ferrel. ***07.16.24 – BIRTHDAY – WILL FERRELL*** I'm Dan Radcliffe and here are the stories Cobb is talking about, presented by Credit Union of Georgia. Marietta School Board to Vote on Millage Rate Daughters Remember 'Chattanooga Fallen Five' in Canton Ralph Reed's Speech and J.D. Vance VP Announcement Highlight Opening Day of Convention Amid Tight Security All of this and more is coming up on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe! BREAK: CU of GA STORY 1: Marietta School Board to Vote on Millage Rate The Marietta Board of Education is set to vote on maintaining a flat millage rate of 17.97 mills for 2024, despite rising property values that would generate $4.9 million more in tax revenue, a 6.3% increase. This would mean an average tax increase of $225 for a $450,000 home. Superintendent Grant Rivera supports this to sustain current funding levels amid the end of federal COVID-19 aid. Board members generally favor the proposal, emphasizing competitive teacher pay and academic priorities. Public hearings are scheduled before the final vote, addressing community concerns today at the board headquarters in Marietta. STORY 2: ‘They are not forgotten': Daughters Remember ‘Chattanooga Fallen Five' in Canton A ceremony at Georgia National Cemetery in Canton honored the "Chattanooga Fallen Five," including U.S. Marine Lance Cpl. Squire Kimpton Paul "Skip" Wells of Marietta, who was killed in a 2015 terrorist attack. Organized by the Daughters of the American Revolution Hightower Trail Chapter, the ceremony commemorated the victims with prayers, eulogies, and a wreath-laying at Wells' headstone. The event coincided with similar ceremonies nationwide for the other victims of the Chattanooga shooting. Wells, a Marine enlisted in 2014, was remembered for his service and contributions to his community, including having a post office and park named in his honor in Cobb County. His family was not present at the ceremony, and efforts continue to reach out to them in remembrance of their son's sacrifice. STORY 3: Delegate Diary:'… the best day ever.' The convention began with breakfast and a speech by Dr. Ralph Reed, emphasizing platform topics and support for President Trump. Delegates, including the narrator who is a whip, boarded a bus with Homeland Security checks en route to the arena. Security at the venue was thorough with canine units and bag checks. Inside, tasks were assigned, and excitement peaked with the announcement of J.D. Vance as the VP pick, met with unanimous approval. The narrator, enjoying the experience, highlighted meeting prominent figures like Newt Gingrich. The day concluded with a break, seeking a snack after a fulfilling start to the convention.

Cahill sustained serious injuries and was taken to Kennestone Hospital. Morrisett was unharmed in the incident. The Cobb Police Department is asking anyone with relevant information to contact them at 770-499-3987 as they continue their investigation.

Reports indicate at least 58 people, including three from Georgia, have fallen ill, with 30 hospitalized and one fatality. Cases span 27 states, prompting a nationwide investigation.
