From life and death emergencies to more routine problems, the calls come into the Hamilton CountyCommunication Center and a Police Officer, fire truck or ambulance is sent out. Squad is being dispatched, a 41yearold female attempted suicide. Taken an unknown quantity of pills after a dispute with a friend goo they handle more than 70 jurisdictions, each town, township, village or city is charged 20 per dispatch. It may not sound like much, but it all adds up. A fee on utility bills is one way although not the only way to reduce the burden. Basically were not weighing in on where the funding should come from or how it needs to work, but we want to relay that its not sustainable the way it is for local governments, because we cant sustain a a 14 increase over two years and not cut other services to our citizens. Police and fire officials packed the commissioner chamber nor a hearing on the proposed utility fee on their own. While the fee would only be about 20 bucks a year for the average customer, to some with low incomes thats loot. Today im concerned because were talking about implementing something that will impact and put residents against safety. Were talking about a tax that will go on without the taxpayers having a say. Its a tough situation. Some townships are asking residents to call the local police directly instead of 911 to save on dispatch fees. If that continues, and if if local jurisdictions leave the center all together to save money that could slow down Response Time while trying to save lives. If you think shes breathing, i need to you put her on her side. If she is not breathing we need to breathe for her. We were there maybe 20 minutes and you could hear those two literally it seemed like life and death calls. If Hamilton County puts the utility fee in place it would be the first county to do. However the commissioner proposes 3. 5 million existing might just pass after another public hearing next week, but that will be for one year and well be back in 2017 looking for a longterm solution. That public hearing is one week from today, 11 30 a. M. , county Administration Building downtown cincinnati. Back to you. I imagine it will be busy. Thanks very much. The city of cincinnati has its own dispatch center as some of you know and does not use the county. But the utility fees as proposed would cover the entire county. That means businesses and people who live in the city would pay the fee even though cincinnatis 911 system would not get any of that money. A judge sends a man to prison for 15 years to life today for raping a 6yearold girl. A Butler County grand jury convicted 28yearold ryan war man. The assault happened in a car last summer.

A michigan regularity fault the epa for not displaying enough urgency. Despite its subpoena, flints former emergency manager refused to appear at that hearing. Well, after this beautiful spring like day, our weather is going to get colder. It was nice today, huh. Meteorologist Scott Dimmich make is here with a first look at the evening. Hi, scott. Clouds will be returning as we dive into the evening. In fact, we have full cloud cover half of this evening. Even though we have sun now, temperatures will be falling through the 30s and 40s this evening, and then well settle down into the upper 20s overnight with a cloudy sky overhead. Satellite and radar shows whats left of the sun right now and a large inquire of cloud cover over the Hoosier State and the state of illinois coming our way. We have some sprinkles in our far northwestern counties. Youll notice on the precision doppler hd, close to indianapolis, a chance for seeing sprinkles or flurries tonight are so low that it will not get a form mention were the possibility is there for the far northwestern part of the tristate for the next few hours. Were down to 48 at the international airport. Mayesville still at 60. Laurels at 44. We have a large temperature difference. Were much cooler and still mostly cloudy tomorrow, but theres a warming trend forecast through the weekend and then the bottom drops out. And well take you a lot planning forecast coming up in 10 minutes. Cammy. Scott, thank you. President ial debates. Do they give you the information you need to decide or do they do you a major dis officers . Why some say the format needs to change. Coming up live at 5 00. After getting caught up in a prostitution ring one player wont front returns battle for supporters, a lawmaker from kentucky says his race for the white house is over. Rand paul is spending his campaign. Pressure was mounting on the kentucky. Especially after lexington jim gray jumped into the race. Meanwhile high Governor John Kasich said he will drop out if he doesnt do better in new hampshire. And Rick Santorum dropped his today. To know nor about the candidates is to tune into the president ial debates. How much can you really learn by watching that . Christine frazao. This is not a cage match. They are woven into the fabric of political campaigns. People are sick and tired of hearing about your dam emails. Theyre drafted to give voters candidates policies and plans. But some argue theyve become more spectacle than cooling. Done irving is chairman of the Group Accuracy in media. A lot of time is spent critiquing each other or criticizing each other doesnt do them any good. It doesnt teach them anything or help them learn about the issues, whether or not its syria or the economy or whatever. Even a few of the candidates themes several have weighed in suggesting some changes could benefit the voters. Debates are supposed to be established to help the people get to know the candidates. What its turned into is a, got you. Rand paul has suspended his president ial campaign. The only thing i would suggest that would be better would be putting a issue out and letting sort of everybody give input on it and have a little bit more back and forth. Some argue the debates should be about style, that the Substance Abuse stance is easily accessible on the candidates website. If you start to give candidates an answer they sound less less like a president and more like a professor and voters tune out. The candidates are going to need as much as of the voters attention as they can get. In washington, im kristi frazao reporting. Sending a message, president obama visits a u. S.

Were mostly cloudy over the next the updated forecast which you can find on the Weather Authority app calls for temperatures falling to the 30s and 40s this evening. Well have a cloud cover ahead. And after local 12 news live at 11 00. We cant rule out some sprinkles well to the northwest of cincinnati, close to interstate 70 this evening, but chance for precipitation is so low that its not going to get an official mention in the forecast. You wont find it in the planning forecast. You wont find the icons in the hourbyhour forecast, but you can track it on our weather app and also track the return the cloud cover over the next few hours. Wkrc is it what you search for in the app store. Still some sun showing up in college hill. Temperature 47 there. Well take 47 there and 40s for most right now down into the upper 20s by early tomorrow morning. We have sun right now in many tristate communities, but clouds will rapidly increase between now and 7 00 tonight. Its too cool for you tomorrow with highs only in the low to mid 30s, well crank up the heat just in time for the weekend. Crittenden is at 57, but compare that to west union or West Harrison at 49 degrees. Florence is at 52, leesburg, 53. The far western, northwestern part of the tristate noticeably cooler than areas well east of cincinnati. Some spots, peebles, west union, still around 60 degrees, but many in southeastern indiana are already down into the 40s, so temperatures will be falling over the next several hours. All the way down to 28 in cincinnati by early tomorrow morning. So well have a 20degree fall between now and the start of good morning cincinnati. Looking at satellite and radar data, theres an upper level disturbance. There are it is sprinkles and flurries showing up on our network of radar. Close to indianapolis. I suspect theyll be few and far between, basically north of middletown, north of laurel and the far northern part of fayette and union county. Notice on precision doppler 12hd, no rain or snow of any significance anywhere close to cincinnati. Cloudy this evening, mostly cloudy tomorrow. If you want more sun we get it for the last day of the workweek with High Pressure moving in. It looks like well see more sun than clouds both saturday and much of sunday. But clouds will increase late sunday and the same disturbance that brings us clouds late sunday will bring us a mix of rain and snow showers on monday and then just snow showers tuesday and wednesday with even colder air moving in. Tonight no rain or snow of significance, but a cloudy sky. Down to 30 at 6 00 in the morning. High tomorrow 36 degrees. Winter is back by early next week, but is it still feels like spring all the way through the weekend. Well trade a high of 36 on thursday for a high near 50 degrees on sunday. Make the most of the weekend and because we have rain, snow, or cold coming early next week. It is winter. Makes sense, right. Thank you, scott.
