Lead Poisoning Laws and Regulations
Cleveland
- City of Cleveland's lead hazard control ordinance (No. 1027-04) incorporates provisions from the Ohio lead law (HB 248), establishes a lead hazard disclosure requirement based on the Federal requirement, and declares lead hazards a public nuisance. In addition, the ordinance creates a voluntary program for landlords to obtain Certificates of Lead Maintenance and Lead-Free Status, which provide a liability defense in case of a lead poisoning lawsuit. Key provisions (pdf, 4 pgs of power point slides) and summary article from Alliance for Healthy Homes
