Committee places cybersecurity ordinance required by Ohio House Bill 96 on agenda as emergency measure
Summary
The committee introduced an ordinance to adopt the city's cybersecurity program in compliance with Ohio House Bill 96, noted the law's effective date requirement (Jan. 1, 2026), and moved to consider it; the transcript records motions but no final vote.
An unidentified speaker (Speaker 3) read an ordinance adopting the city’s cybersecurity program, stating it is required by Ohio House Bill 96 and was declared an emergency to meet the statutory timing before Jan. 1, 2026. The committee made a motion to bring the item forward; Speakers 1 and 3 participated in the motion and second as recorded in the transcript.
Speaker 3 emphasized the statutory requirement and the emergency declaration but the record does not include additional program details such as specific security controls, funding for implementation, or a staff report describing compliance steps. The committee moved on after the procedural motion, and the transcript does not record a vote or further staff presentation in the provided excerpt.
Because the record is limited to the motion and the statutory citation, the article limits its description to what was stated: the ordinance title, the statutory trigger (Ohio House Bill 96), the Jan. 1, 2026 timing referenced in the meeting, and that it was introduced as an emergency measure and moved for consideration.
