Ohio HB585 amends the Department of Developmental Disabilities' authority over community capital assistance funds.

Ohio HB585 revises the Department of Developmental Disabilities' authority over community capital assistance funds. It allows the director to withhold state reimbursement from counties for non-compliance with certain laws and rules. The bill also permits county boards to secure property interests in housing for individuals with developmental disabilities and mandates that residents have a say in their housing choices. The director can adopt rules for using these funds, which cannot be combined with other sources that impose contrary requirements.
