Ottawa County treasurer tells Port Clinton council reappraisals could create "unvoted windfalls" for school districts
Summary
Anthony Hatmaker, Ottawa County Treasurer, told Port Clinton City Council that property reappraisals combined with a state 20-mill floor for school districts could result in unvoted revenue gains for districts and added costs for property owners; he provided a link to the recorded presentation.
Anthony Hatmaker, Ottawa County Treasurer, presented to Port Clinton City Council Nov. 26 and warned that upcoming property reappraisals, together with a state law that sets a 20-mill floor for school districts, may create what he called "unvoted windfalls at the expense of property owners in their district." He provided a link to the recorded presentation for council members to review.
Hatmaker framed the issue as an interaction between reappraisal and existing state tax rules; the transcript records his characterization but does not include detailed figures or a formal recommendation recorded in the meeting. No council vote or formal action followed the presentation.
The presentation was listed on the agenda as a guest presentation and was included for council information and potential follow-up.
