Lucas County commissioners OK submission of 1‑mill renewal levy to voters for children’s services
Summary
The board approved placing a five‑year, 1.0‑mill renewal levy supporting children’s services on the ballot and completed a roll‑call vote to submit the measure to electors; the levy was presented under section 5705.24 of the Revised Code.
The Lucas County Board of Commissioners voted to submit a five‑year, 1.0‑mill renewal levy to the electorate to continue support for children’s services.
County staff described the levy as a renewal of an existing levy that will be levied in excess of the 10‑mill limitation and submitted under section 5705.24 of the Revised Code. The board moved to place the measure before voters and approved the action by roll call.
The board did not change levy language during the meeting; staff said the levy mirrors the existing levy structure and is intended to maintain funding for placement and support services for children. No additional fiscal detail or projected revenue estimates were included in the presentation.
The next steps are administrative: county staff will prepare the official ballot language and related materials for the board and the elections office. No specific election date or revenue projection was provided during the discussion.
The board adjourned after completing the day's business; this levy submission is among the last actions recorded in the year‑end meeting.
