Cincinnati City Council has approved a $5.4 million public safety plan, adding to the city’s existing $351.8 million safety budget, which makes up about 60% of its total annual spending. The funding will support police overtime, recruitment, youth outreach programs, curfew centers, and surveillance tools like cameras and license plate readers. This decision follows recent high-profile violence in the city and a new partnership with the state to target repeat violent offenders.
