Cincinnati's Environmental Justice Ordinance

Posted on January 8, 2010 by Vorys

We previously reported on Cincinnati's Environmental Justice Ordinance, believed to be the first of its kind for a City.  That ordinance was supposed to take effect in December 2009.  On January 5th, the City Council's Quality of Life Committee unanimously passed a motion to delay the effective date until February 2011 due to lack of funding in the City's budget for implementation.  Additional City Council action will be necessary to amend the existing ordinance.
