Toledo Voters Weigh Safety Tax | Toledo News

Toledo voters could soon decide whether to approve a new four-year income tax hike this November — not for general city spending, but specifically to fund public safety. The proposal goes beyond just cops and firehouses, aiming to tackle gangs, blight, unsafe buildings, and even redesign streets for safer neighborhoods. While details are still being ironed out, the ballot language is tightly focused on safety, and council members say they’ll soon present a detailed plan for how the money will be spent — all subject to future council approval. This would be Toledo’s third dedicated income tax, but the first one solely for safety initiatives. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
