❌ HB222
Revise solid waste and construction and demolition debris laws
Summary
HB222 amends various sections of the Ohio Revised Code to revise laws governing the transfer and disposal of solid waste and construction and demolition debris. It establishes new procedures for counties to withdraw from joint solid waste management districts and outlines requirements for the management and operation of solid waste facilities. The bill also includes provisions for the establishment of solid waste management plans and the imposition of fees related to solid waste disposal.
Rationale
The bill increases government regulation and oversight of solid waste management, which conflicts with Libertarian principles advocating for minimal government intervention and the protection of individual property rights. It imposes fees and mandates on local governments, which may be seen as an infringement on local autonomy and economic freedom.
Risks and Concerns
- Increased government control over waste management
- Potential for higher costs to taxpayers through imposed fees
- Restrictions on local governments' autonomy
