Richmond Heights, Ohio, Mayor Kim Thomas has warned that a proposed amendment to eliminate property taxes in Ohio could have significant impact on local governments and public services across the state if it reaches the November ballot. The proposal is supported by supporters who believe excessive government growth and the state's tax system is excessive. The campaign has also introduced an 'Ohioans’ Declaration of Independence' to represent its message of limiting government growth. However, Thomas noted that while the campaign has made progress, it has not yet secured ballot access. The coming weeks will determine whether the amendment will appear before voters in November.
