The general assembly shall provide for the organization of cities, and incorporated villages, by general laws, and restrict their power of taxation, assessment, borrowing money, contracting debts and loaning their credit, so as to prevent the abuse of such power. [Constitution of Ohio, 1851, Article XIII, Section 6]. Municipalities shall have authority to exercise all powers of local self‐government and to adopt and enforce within their limits such local police, sanitary and other similar regulations, as are not in conflict with general laws. [Constitution of Ohio as amended September 3, 1912, Article XVIII, Section 3].
