Description
Jay Kincaid and Ozzy Davis, spokespeople for the campaign opposing Cincinnati Public Schools’ Issue 4 levy, said they believe the proposed $66 million property tax increase would add to financial pressure on families, including renters who could face higher costs if landlords pass along increased taxes. Davis, a former school board member, said affordability is his primary concern, while Kincaid criticized the district for placing the levy on the ballot before engaging the public and laying out a spending plan. The two said they support strong schools but believe the district should work with residents on a longer-term proposal and that rejecting the levy would not necessarily trigger an immediate state takeover or fiscal emergency. They formed a political action committee to campaign against the measure, using radio, mail, digital ads and signs, and described their position as “no for now,” rather than opposition to future school funding.
