Walton Hills council introduces cybersecurity ordinance for first reading
Summary
Council introduced Ordinance 2026-6 to adopt a cybersecurity program for the Village of Walton Hills under Ohio Revised Code section 9.64(C); the item was read for the first time and no adoption vote was taken.
The Village of Walton Hills council on April 21 introduced Ordinance 2026-6, "an ordinance adopting a cybersecurity program in accordance with Ohio Revised Code section 9.64(C) for the Village of Walton Hills," and declared it a first reading.
The mayor introduced the ordinance and the council acknowledged that it had not previously received a first reading; the mayor read the title and scope of the ordinance and members accepted the first reading without taking action to adopt the ordinance. "I'd like to introduce ordinance number 2026-6 for a first reading, an ordinance adopting a cybersecurity program in accordance with Ohio Revised Code section 9.64 sub C for the Village of Walton Hills and declaring an emergency," the mayor said during the introduction.
Because the measure was only read for the first time, no final action was recorded. The ordinance references Ohio Revised Code section 9.64(C), indicating the village is taking steps to formalize cybersecurity practices for municipal systems. The council may consider additional readings or formal adoption at a future meeting.
