Provide grants for mortgage, property tax, and utility bill help
SB 255 would create a new program under Ohio law to provide state grants to eligible residents. The grants would directly assist qualifying households with payments for mortgage principal, property taxes, and utility bills. The bill establishes a specific funding mechanism (section 175.50 of the Revised Code) to distribute these financial supports. It focuses on concrete financial relief for low-to-moderate income homeowners facing housing cost burdens.
