Ohio House hears testimony supporting the brownfield redevelopment tax credit
The Ohio House of Representatives recently heard testimony in support of H.B. 135, which would authorize nonrefundable credits against the income tax and certain business taxes for the rehabilitation of vacant industrial sites (see our April 22, 2013, blog post for more information).
