At a Sept. 22 special meeting, the Forest Park City Council adopted Ordinance 24-2025, authorizing termination of a property tax exemption "granted pursuant to section 5709.40" and declaring an emergency, the title as read by city law director John Wyckoff said. The measure passed on a 6-0 roll call vote.

Council member Sylvester moved adoption of Ordinance 24-2025; the motion was seconded and the roll call recorded yes votes from Adams, Brown, Clark, Harrison, Moore and Sylvester. The council had voted earlier to suspend rules so the ordinance could be read by title only.
