After meetings with our OSBA Board and the ODA Leadership, the Ohio State Beekeepers Association would like to offer our membership and beekeepers within Ohio an opportunity to voice their thoughts and concerns about Ohio House Bill 96.  We are planning this event for Sunday, July 27, starting at 7:00 pm and you will be required to register to attend. We will provide assistance to those who are unfamiliar with this format.

In the first part of the meeting, we will share the details about sections 909.01 to 909.18, which are located on pages 591, 592, 593, and the very top of 594. Please review this document before the meeting to save time, PDF version CLICK HERE. After that time, everyone will have up to 3 minutes to participate or ask questions.

The OSBA will use this meeting to gather input from everyone. It will then be formatted into a letter, which will be sent to the Ohio Department of Agriculture and the County Commissioners Association of Ohio.
