Summary

Ohio House Bill 882 allows local governments to request access to unclaimed funds held by the state to temporarily cover revenue shortfalls caused by delinquent property taxes. When property tax collections are delayed or incomplete, local governments could use these unclaimed funds on a temporary basis to maintain normal operations and services. The bill enacts a new code section to establish this authorization and includes an appropriation to fund the mechanism.
