Ohio state Representative Brian Stewart introduces House Bill 695, targeting local officials signing nondisclosure agreements with companies seeking economic development deals. The bill aims to increase transparency and public trust by making such agreements void and imposing fines. The proposal comes in response to cases like Columbus secretive data center deal, which kept residents in the dark about project details. During the bills first hearing, lawmakers raised concerns about home rule laws and potential disadvantages compared to neighboring states.
