Issue Position: Repurposing Vacant and Abandoned Property

Issue Position

Date: Jan. 1, 2016

There are hundreds of vacant and abandoned lots in our district. These empty spaces encourage crime, lower property values, and generally undermine the growth of our community. I work every day to collaborate with other local leaders to find creative solutions for these spaces that will enhance our community.

In the General Assembly, I introduced a bill that would establish procedures for the remediation of Ohio properties on which a meth lab has been discovered. The legislation established identification and cleanup procedures for sites that contain harmful meth-related chemicals. Remediation of these sites is the next step in the process of reclaiming our neighborhoods.
