Kasich budget Gives the ability to pay construction workers on many public projects less

[upstatecajun]

While the fight over collective bargaining continued in the bowels of the Statehouse yesterday, a Kasich administration official testified to legislators upstairs about the "other tools" that local governments can use to control costs.

Among them - the ability to pay construction workers on many public projects less in hourly wages.

Ohio Gov. John Kasich's budget, which includes a $1.9 billion cut in funding to schools and local governments, calls for an increase in the cost threshold for public construction projects requiring payment of prevailing wages from $78,258 to $5 million.
