Buckeye Institute Searchable Data Tools Add Cincinnati, Columbus, and Franklin County Salaries Among Others


COLUMBUS - The Buckeye Institute for Public Policy Solutions today added many new pieces of data to its wildly popular  searchable data tools on its website.  New data available includes:

    * 2008-2010 salaries from the Cities of Cincinnati, Columbus, as well as Franklin County
    * 2010 salaries from the City of Marion and Marion County
    * 2011 salaries from the University of Cincinnati
    * 2011 teachers' salaries from all K-12 school districts in the state

Since the launch of the new website on April 30, 2010, there has been over 657,000 visits from 544 Ohio cities and across the country.  Visitors have performed nearly 5.2 million searches using the state government, K-12 teacher, local government, higher ed, and federal salary data base tools as well as the lobbyist expenditure data tool.

Buckeye Institute President Matt A. Mayer noted, "Ohioans continue to hunger after transparency because they want to know where their taxpayer dollars are being spent.  Our data tools help them do this in an unprecedented way. "

All data tools are available at www.buckeyeinstitute.org.
