OFCC Sues City of Cleveland Heights, Ohio The sign you see here is posted in Cleveland Heights Parks implying possession of a firearm is a crime. On Friday August 12th, 2011 Ohioans For Concealed Carry Filed a lawsuit against the City the City of Cleveland Heights. The litigation comes after many attempts to resolve concerns over laws that Cleveland Heights not only allowed to remain on their books, but also posted signs at their parks that continue to imply it is illegal to be armed. The City of Cleveland Heights has chosen to ignore our attempts at civil discourse. When individuals have contacted them representing themselves as residents of the City of Cleveland Heights their concerns apparently fell on deaf ears. When representatives of the organization have formally contacted the city's legal representation they've been laughed at and hung up on by the Law Director. It is this arrogance and refusal to work with Ohioans For Concealed Carry that has forced us to seek a remedy through the courts.

HB422, a bill introduced earlier this week that would eliminate Ohio's onerous notification requirement, has been referred to the Ohio House of Representatives' State Government and Elections Committee. This is a positive first step in moving the bill down the long road to becoming law. Ohioans for Concealed Carry proposed the specific language and provisions now contained in HB422 and worked closely with Rep. Maag (Dist. 35), who introduced the bill.

A second pro-gun bill introduced this week, HB425, also was referred to the State Government and Elections Committee. HB425 would allow concealed carry licensees to possess or store a handgun in a motor vehicle in the State Underground Parking Garage, or in any parking garage or lot that is owned and operated by the Ohio Building Authority, or is all or part of a state government facility.

Updates on HB422 and HB425 will be posted here as information becomes available. You also can follow the progress of these bills here: HB422, HB425 (click "status report of legislation" on the left side of page).
