A bit more on hospital support for Dayton levy
We’ve got a bit more about the support of health care companies for the Dayton levy in today’s paper.
Tom Breitenbach, chief executive of Premier Health Partners, said for him supporting the levy was about jobs. He said Miami Valley Hospital and other properties under his group hire many Dayton graduates and they need those future workers to be prepared. Premier gave an eye-popping $50,000 to the levy campaign.
I’m getting some cautiously optimistic vibes from people I know who have been campaigning door-to-door for the levy that there is solid support in the community. But an economy that has badly tanked in the past month is working against DPS. Do you have any sense for whether the levy will pass?
