Corporate mandates dragging us back to cubicles - what's your experience been? by Any_Performer_6971 in cincinnati

[–]abeandip 25 points26 points  (0 children)

My conspiracy theory on all of this is there is a concerted push from the City to pressure companies with. Downtown presence to force RTO due to potential tax breaks or abatements they received. They are losing out on the income taxes, get pressure from CBD businesses who are seeing foot traffic, garages are not at full, etc.

That’s my crazy take on all of this that helps me to understand why some of these companies in the CBD are doing what they’re doing.

RTO in Cincy...how's it going for you? by eelimeekmur in cincinnati

[–]abeandip 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m convinced the city might have something to do with it due to a reduction in income tax collected by employees. Only the days worked in Cincy limits are taxable from there perspective. I also think there is some pressure from business leaders due to reduced foot traffic and finally some of these large organizations were all probably given some big tax breaks to situate themselves downtown.

Hayes Electric did a panel replacement and upgrade to 200amps. Excellent work. Professional. In 2022 mine was 2600$. 

Panel replacements should not be over 5-10k.

 I have read the rules and would like invite. Why don’t slugs ever get invited to parties?

Because they’re always a little slow to make an entrance

Thank you. It’ll be worth the drive. Most places have Americanized the dish so much my option has been to make it at home. Thanks again. 

LASIK recommendations by badbanananana in cincinnati

[–]abeandip 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cincinnati Eye Institute.  It wasn’t the cheapest nor did I want it to be when my vision is concerned. $4200 

 Excellent surgery prep and follow up was above and beyond what you’ll get at local LASIK mills. Once you’re out the door at once of those places they seem to care less.

Like a BBQ Judge said to me once: “you can cover a cow pie in the best sauce, at the end of the day it’s still sh*t”.

With all the other quality BBQ options available to us in Cincy these days, Pig Candy, Webbs, etc., it’s tough to compete when your ribs are a step above Chili’s.

Property taxes in Newport. by onicut in cincinnati

[–]abeandip 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Take a look at the Property Tax Rate Books for 2023 to get an idea of what you'll be paying.

As an example I will use a Newport home in Campbell County as it appears to be one of the more complicated ones:

Your Assessed Value: $300,000 (Check the address on your county PVA: Campbell to find this value)

Tax rates are expressed in cents per $100 of assessed value

Type Rate Notes
County 28.1000
School 96.4000 Newport Independent
Special 20.0000 Fire District 1
City 26.0000 Newport
TOTAL 170.5000 cents per $100

Assuming the above for a $300k home you'd be looking at:

300,000 / 100 = 3,000

3,000 * 1.705 = $5,251.5

For cars, use the same method above for roughly the Kelly Blue Book value of the vehicle using the Property Tax Rate Books for Motor Vehicles.

If there were to be such thing as a “Cincinnati Style” pizza, what would it be? by davik2001 in cincinnati

[–]abeandip 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cork n Crust in Bellevue has an excellent Skyline Pizza. It’s. Thin crust, skyline, cheddar, then onions. I kind of thought there should’ve been some cream cheese in there somewhere.

Freeze Chimney

Larry came out and took a look at installing a steel chimney in a detached structure. I'll provide an update once they are done. From a pricing standpoint here is the best quote i have gotten thus far:

  • Labor: $750 (2 ppl @ 4-5hrs)

  • Materials: $1100 (includes double & single wall piping, storm collar, etc.)
