Ohio voters approve ballot issue authorizing $2.5 billion in bonds over 10 years for infrastructure

  • Ohio voters approved State Issue 2 on May 7, 2025, authorizing $2.5 billion in bonds for infrastructure over the next decade.
  • The measure extended the long-standing Ohio Capital Improvement Program, established in 1987, which finances local infrastructure projects such as roads and bridges without increasing taxes.
  • The program allows issuing up to $250 million in general obligation bonds annually, supported by the Strong Ohio Communities Coalition, and aims to create an estimated 35,000 construction jobs.
  • Sam Rossi, spokesperson for the coalition, expressed gratitude to Ohio residents for approving the continuation of the State Capital Improvement Program through their May ballot decision, emphasizing the broad bipartisan backing and the critical need for ongoing local infrastructure enhancements.
  • The approval marks the fifth renewal in 38 years, distributing funds via grants and interest-free loans, and suggests continued investment in Ohio’s infrastructure without new taxes.
