Fulton County commissioners send 4.0‑mill EMS levy renewal to May 5 ballot
Summary
The Fulton County Board of Commissioners approved a resolution to place a five‑year, 4.0‑mill emergency medical services (EMS) levy renewal on the May 5, 2026 ballot; if approved it will appear on the tax list for 2026 and be first due in 2027.
The Fulton County Board of Commissioners on Feb. 3 adopted Resolution 2026-091 declaring it necessary to levy a tax in excess of the ten‑mill limitation — a renewal of an existing 4.0 mills to fund emergency medical services for five years. The resolution instructs the clerk to certify the measure to the Fulton County Board of Elections for the May 5, 2026 election.
The resolution says the levy would be placed on the tax list commencing in tax year 2026, first due in calendar year 2027 if a majority of voters approve it. The board recorded a unanimous vote in favor; the resolution also directs the clerk to provide the Board of Elections with the certification no later than 90 days before the election. The resolution cites Ohio election timelines and follows the formal adoption language required by Ohio Revised Code.
