Hardin Advocates Fiscal Tightening in Budget Fight
Columbus City Council President Shannon Hardin is proposing legislation to restrict Mayor Andrew Ginther’s budgeting practices amid a dispute over city finances. Hardin alleges mismanagement and lack of transparency, citing a nearly $17 million overtime expense for the Fire Division and concerns over the use of the city's debt fund for operating costs. The council is set to vote on measures including a scaled-back bond sale and policies to limit reliance on the Income Tax Set Aside fund, as the city faces rising personnel costs and debt management issues.
