Toledo firefighters could face layoffs if the city's proposed safety levy fails, according to Joe Cira, president of Toledo Firefighters Local 92. The levy, Issue 16, is on the ballot in the Nov. 3 election and requests a temporary income tax to fund emergency services, including police and fire safety operations. If the levy fails and the firefighters are kept on staff, the money would need to come from somewhere else. The tax would cost workers $2.50 per $1,000 of earned income, and a person with annual earned income of $30,000 would be taxed $75. Cira and the union are working to educate the public about the levy before the election.
