  • Internal Assessment of Police Reform Efforts Ohiomayorsalliance.Org
    POLICE REFORM SUPPORT NETWORK PRELIMINARY REPORT Internal Assessment of Police Reform Efforts ohiomayorsalliance.org OHIO MAYORS ALLIANCE 1 POLICE REFORM SUPPORT NETWORK The Ohio Mayors Alliance announced the formation of its Police Reform Support Network in June 2020 following the tragic death of George Floyd at the hands of a Minneapolis police officer. This event set off an unprecedented period of protest in communities large and small across the country and around the globe. While the call for change in policing practices was a national movement, the work to identity and implement change fell at the doorstep of mayors throughout Ohio and beyond. To support our cities in these efforts, the Ohio Mayors Alliance launched the Police Reform Support Network and hired a new staff member to lead this work. 2 OHIO MAYORS ALLIANCE INTERNAL POLICE REFORM POLICY SURVEY As the urgent calls for change were echoing across the country, the Ohio Mayors Alliance looked at a variety of proposed reforms and developed a survey for our members to develop a preliminary understanding of the efforts that were underway in our cities, as well as the opportunities for additional change. The survey questions drew upon recommendations from groups like the “8 Can’t Wait” campaign (8cantwait.org) and others. The areas of focus for the survey included: limits on use of force, transparency, accountability and oversight, recruiting and training, crowd control policies, and efforts to rethink community safety. Notably, the City of Canton is compliant with the “8 Can’t Wait” campaign. A copy of the survey questions can be found in Addendum 1.

  • Toledo Sues Opioid Manufacturers, Distributors
    10/31/2017 Local - Toledo Blade Toledo sues opioid manufacturers, distributors 10/30/2017 BY IGNAZIO MESSINA BLADE STAFF WRITER Toledo Mayor Paula Hicks-Hudson speaks at a press conference in which the city announced it is suing opioid manufacturers. The Blade Buy This Image http://www.toledoblade.com/local/2017/10/30/Toledo-sues-opioid-manufacturers.print 1/2 10/31/2017 Local - Toledo Blade The city of Toledo sued 24 opioid manufacturers and distributors Monday, Mayor Paula Hicks- Hudson announced. "It is designed to hold them responsible," the mayor said. "The goal is to recover our costs and to change the ways in which they prescribe and advertise these drugs.” Mayor Hicks-Hudson said city taxpayers have spent more than $400,000 for Toledo firefighters to respond to opioid-related emergency calls this year. “We have had enough of our community members suffering or dying of overdoses from the unfair distribution and marketing practices of these addictive drugs. The time is now to hold drug manufacturers and distributors accountable for their actions,” Mayor Hicks-Hudson said. The nearly 300 page lawsuit was filed in Lucas County Common Pleas Court. Toledo City Council voted on Oct. 17 to hire two law firms, Climaco, Wilcox, Peca & Garofoli Co., LPA, and Napoli Shkolnik PLLC, to sue for opioid-related costs. The law firms represent several other cities, including Dayton and Parma, Ohio, in similar suits “arising out of the alleged fraudulent and negligent marketing and distribution of prescription drugs including hydrocodone, oxycodone, oxymorphone, methadone, and related to the opioid epidemic affecting this community,” council’s ordinance said.

  • 2019 Annual Report
    Local leadership. Statewide impact. 2019 ANNUAL REPORT OHIO MAYORS ALLIANCE 1 Local leadership. Statewide impact. TABLE OF CONTENTS Letter from the Board | 3 Policy Priorities | 4 Membership | 6 About the Ohio Mayors Alliance | 8 Mission Statement | 9 What’s Happening in Ohio’s Cities | 10 Programs & Partnerships | 12 Ohio’s Mayors on the National Stage | 24 Member Cities & Contact Information | 26 2 OHIO MAYORS ALLIANCE Fellow Ohioans, In 2016, a group of us came together to form the Ohio Mayors Alliance, a bipartisan coalition of mayors of Ohio’s largest cities. Since that time, we’ve worked together to advocate for our cities, build better partnerships with state leaders, and foster idea-sharing and collaboration among the mayors. This year has been one of continued growth for the Ohio Mayors Alliance. We’ve worked to advocate for a significant increase in resources for our transportation infrastructure. We also successfully advocated for the first increase in local government funding in over a decade. In addition to our legislative advocacy work, we’ve also forged several important partnerships with other non-profits and philanthropic organizations. Through these efforts, we developed a grant program to help our cities champion educational attainment goals, helped to support small business leadership in our communities, and taken action to promote healthy communities across Ohio. Our membership has also grown this year. In March, we welcomed a new coalition member, Mayor Steve Patterson of Athens, chair of the Mayors’ Partnership for Progress, which represents more than 60 communities in Southeast Ohio.
