Summary

The bill amends Ohio law so that if a court finds a municipal corporation non‑compliant with water or sewer practices affecting out‑of‑city subdivisions, the state can stop loans, grants and local‑government‑fund payments to that municipality. It also sets detailed formulas for how local government fund (LGF) and revenue assistance fund (LGRAF) money is calculated and reduced. The changes aim to pressure municipalities to follow fair service and payment rules for neighboring townships and subdivisions.
