As previously reported by News Center 7, the Clergy Community Coalition has spent months trying months collecting signatures.
“This is the third time we’re going before the city commission, and this time we can say we made it. We got the required number of signatures,” said Bishop Richard Cox.
Their goal is to put a public hospital in Dayton’s west side, the community where the former Good Samaritan Hospital used to be.
The Clergy Community Coalition’s petition allows city residents to vote on the proposed one-mill tax that could raise $2 million every year for 10 years.
We will update this story.
