“Make sure that when you have a rule or regulation to comply with it is not only going to be easy, but as least expensive as possible because every dollar you spend on complying with the government regulation is a dollar you cannot reinvest in your business or that you can’t put towards hiring a new employee or innovating a new technology, ” Taylor told more than 400 business owners attending the West Chester & Liberty Chamber Alliance Business Expo.
“We understand that so we want to streamline the way state government and our agencies who regulate
you, interact with you, and your business every single day by making it easier to comply with the regulations that we have,” she said. “We are doing real life investigations of job killing regulations every single day in our state because we know how important it is to make it easier not only from a tax perspective, but regulatory perspective for you create those jobs right here in Ohio.”
The initiative is one of the programs the state has in place to help business owners, she said.
Taylor said the state also is getting rid of duplicate agencies.
She said the state took a look at the inflatable or bounce houses used for children’s birthday parties. Taylor said it was discovered that industry was being regulated by the department of commerce and the department of agriculture.
After talks with both agencies, it was agreed that industry would be better regulated by the department of commerce.
“That’s just one example of eliminating duplicate regulations,” she said.
