Ohio HB639 provides a defense for nuisance claims related to racing facilities and racetracks.
Ohio HB639 establishes a defense for nuisance claims brought by property owners within a five-mile radius of a racing facility or racetrack. This defense applies if the property owner purchased or constructed a building after the facility's completion, the facility is lawfully operating, and the nuisance claim is based on ordinary and anticipated activities. These activities include noise, dust, traffic, lighting, and other typical operations. The defense remains valid regardless of changes to the facility's size, scope, configuration, or technology.
