State ex rel. Valentine v. Schoen
| 2024-1174 | Elections—Mandamus—Writ sought to compel members of board of elections to place a zoning referendum on the general-election ballot—Petition circulators of the zoning referendum did not include with their referendum petition “an appropriate map of the area affected by the zoning proposal” as required by R.C. 519.12(H)—Because petition circulators did not include an appropriate map with their referendum petition, the board of elections did not abuse its discretion or act in clear disregard of applicable legal provisions when it sustained the protest against the petition and refused to place the zoning referendum on the ballot—Writ denied. | Per Curiam | Slip Opinion No. 2024-Ohio-3439 |
