Sean Patrick Brennan (Parma), as an early critic of the inclusion of a $600M bond proposal in the state operating budget to subsidize a new domed stadium for the Cleveland Browns in Brookpark, today feels obligated as a public servant to make sure the citizens of Ohio are fully aware of a new report done by the Ohio Office of Budget and Management (OBM) detailing the financial analysis of the “risky” proposal.

COLUMBUS – State Rep. Sean Patrick Brennan (D-Parma) this week voted “NO” on the state operating budget, House Bill (HB) 96, because it arbitrarily and recklessly slashes critical state funding areas while failing to benefit hard-working Ohioans.
