Residential Tax Abatements Historical
insights.cincinnati-oh.gov | Last Updated 2024-06-07T17:32:34.766ZThe Department of Community and Economic Development (DCED) provides and leverages funding and other resources that support quality housing, neighborhood revitalization and human services in the City of Cincinnati. DCED provides tax incentives to help businesses and residents grow and thrive. The Cincinnati Residential Tax Abatement program minimizes property owners' taxes by allowing them to pay taxes on the pre-improvement value of their property for 10-15 years. Property tax abatement is available for any increased valuation that results from improvements to the property for new construction and renovation. The goals of this program are: 1) stimulate community revitalization, 2) retain City residents, 3) attract homeowners, and 4) reduce development costs of home-ownership and rental projects. All condominiums and one-, two-, or three-unit structures within the City of Cincinnati—new construction or rehab—may apply for the residential tax abatement program. A minimum of $2,500 for one- and two-unit structures and $5,000 for three-unit structures must have been spent on eligible activities. The Hamilton County Auditor's Office determines the abatement amount based on the type of improvements as well as what affected tax bill it is applied. Application information is available online.

Snow Plow Tracker
insights.cincinnati-oh.gov | Last Updated 2024-02-17T11:51:50.592ZWhen ice and snow hit the region, Winter Operations keeps Cincinnati moving safely by plowing, de-icing, and treating the streets. During winter weather events, the Department of Public Services (DPS) uses professional weather service data, road condition information, and GPS tracking software to maximize all available resources and develop an optimized operations plan for each storm. DPS relies on snow priority routes to effectively triage street treatment-- primary routes, such as hills, bridges, main thoroughfares and the downtown business district, are typically treated first. During a Winter Weather Event the interactive map above shows (1) where snow vehicles have already been; (2) when a vehicle was on a particular street; and (3) the distance covered by snow vehicles since the start of the winter weather event. The interactive Snow Routes map shows priority routes for treatment during a winter event. For more information on winter street conditions, call 513-591-6000 or visit twitter.com/CinPubServices.

Emergency Medical Services (EMS)
insights.cincinnati-oh.gov | Last Updated 2024-05-28T15:14:48.593ZEvery time an emergency medical service (EMS) incident is reported, all incident information provided is captured in the city's Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) system. This data helps emergency incident dispatchers determine the medical category, severity level of the emergency, and appropriate response level. Once first responders are dispatched to provide medical aid, they update the incident disposition (on-scene status) in CAD to reflect what they find on-scene. The data displayed in the dashboard is only for the Cincinnati Fire Department's (CFD) responses to reported emergency medical incidents, and does not include patient information or medical outcome data.

Recycling Participation
insights.cincinnati-oh.gov | Last Updated 2021-11-19T19:25:23.229ZThe City of Cincinnati recognizes waste reduction and diversion as critical in our effort to keep our communities clean and litter-free, and key components of our path to sustainability. With the right systems in place, most so-called waste materials are actually valuable resources. Cincinnati began offering curbside recycling to residents and businesses in 1989, and has steadily increased participation and waste-diversion rates over time. With the introduction of RFID technology in recycling carts, the City has been able to use recycling analytics data to target outreach efforts and improve participation, reduce our environmental footprint and save money.

Emissions & Greenhouse Gases
insights.cincinnati-oh.gov | Last Updated 2020-07-28T15:41:40.493ZThe City of Cincinnati recognizes that climate plays an important role in the quality of life, economic well-being, and long term sustainability of our City and region. Greenhouse gases (GHG) like Carbon Dioxide, Methane, and Nitrous Oxide as the result of human activity are collecting in the Earth’s atmosphere at levels that are capable of altering our climate. The Green Cincinnati Plan outlines steps we can take to mitigate our region’s environmental impact and one of those steps is a greenhouse gas inventory. Cincinnati’s first GHG inventory was conducted in 2006, and serves as the baseline from which our climate impact is measured. This summary of Cincinnati's 2015 Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Analysis shows that our efforts, combined with changes in the region’s energy supply, have been effective in reducing our emissions output. With this information the City of Cincinnati can measure our progress on our path to sustainability and provides data to inform policy and decision making. The Government emissions inventory includes emissions generated from municipal operations, including energy used in water and waste water treatment, city building and facilities operations, streetlights, traffic signals, vehicle fleet and aviation fuel use. Reductions can be attributed to: Street light conversion to LED lightbulbs; Facility energy improvement upgrades/retrofits; Upgrades to Metropolitan Sewer District's incinerators; and Installation of solar panels on some City owned facilities. The Community emissions inventory includes emissions generated from commercial, industrial, and residential gas and electric consumption, motor vehicle transportation, and solid waste generation. Reductions can be attributed to:Incentives for commercial energy upgrades offered by Duke; Grid decarbonization;100% Renewable energy offered to residents and businesses through the City's Energy Aggregation Program; Population loss from 2006 to 2015 (approximately 10%); and Improved waste diversion. Taken together, Government and Community emissions total approximately 7.6M tons CO2e, representing a citywide reduction of 18.4% since the 2006 baseline was established at 9.3M tons CO2e. The largest increases in emissions occurred in the industrial energy and vehicular travel sector, while the largest reductions were seen in the commercial and residential energy sectors. From 2006 to 20015, Cincinnati achieved a city-wide 18.4% reduction in GHG emissions. Based on targets originally established in the 2008 Green Cincinnati Plan, this decrease indicates that the city has met its goal of a 2% reduction in GHG emissions per year. The City of Cincinnati will continue to work to reduce the region’s emissions through the implementation of recommendations of the Green Cincinnati Plan.

Pedestrian Stops
insights.cincinnati-oh.gov | Last Updated 2024-05-06T13:33:22.694ZThis visual captures all pedestrian stops. Time of incident, officer assignment, race/sex of stop subject, and outcome of the stop ("Action taken") are also included in this data. Individual pedestrian stops may populate multiple data rows to account for multiple outcomes: "interview number" is the unique identifier for every one (1) pedestrian stop. This visual is updated daily. DISCLAIMER: In compliance with privacy laws, all Public Safety datasets are anonymized and appropriately redacted prior to publication on the City of Cincinnati’s Open Data Portal. This means that for all public safety datasets: (1) the last two digits of all addresses have been replaced with “XX,” and in cases where there is a single digit street address, the entire address number is replaced with "X"; and (2) Latitude and Longitude have been randomly

Greenspace Maintenance
insights.cincinnati-oh.gov | Last Updated 2023-10-03T18:28:40.440ZNeighborhood Operations Division (NOD), a division of the Department of Public Services (DPS) is responsible for maintaining a large portion of visible city-owned property.
