State Rep. Lorenz pushes property-tax relief, zoning reform and local partnership
Summary
State Representative Brian Lorenz told Dublin council he is advancing property-tax relief measures and authored HB 361 to modernize zoning; he urged coordination on capital grants and flagged limited capital budget funding available for civic projects.
State Representative Brian Lorenz (Ohio House, 60th District) spoke to Dublin City Council about state-level priorities he says will affect cities like Dublin, including property tax relief and land-use reforms. "The property tax relief remains one of the most urgent issues facing our residents," Lorenz said, citing valuation-driven tax increases and noting his support for reforms including House Bill 187 that aim to limit the impact of valuation spikes.
Lorenz also described House Bill 361, which he said he authored to modernize zoning and land-use processes, reduce unnecessary red tape, and respect local decision-making while improving legal clarity for development. He encouraged Dublin to coordinate with his office on capital budget opportunities; he noted the state’s capital budget program provides a limited, periodic funding pot for civic projects and said his office would help identify potential projects for Dublin to submit.
