Council approves necessity resolutions to place two levies for streets and police before county auditor
Summary
Council approved Resolutions of Necessity requesting certification from the Ashtabula County Auditor for a renewal 1.5-mill five-year streets levy and a new 1.99-mill five-year police levy under ORC §5705.03; both motions passed unanimously.
On July 20 the Village Council voted to request certification from the Ashtabula County Auditor for two levy measures: a renewal 1.5-mill levy for five years to fund streets, roads and bridges (Resolution 2026-51) and a new/additional 1.99-mill levy for five years to support the police department (Resolution 2026-52).
Both measures were presented as Resolutions of Necessity under Ohio Revised Code §5705.03. P.J. Macchia moved for emergency action and to waive readings on both items; Matt Caudill seconded. Roll-call votes for the emergency motions and final actions were recorded as unanimous.
The resolutions request certification necessary to place the measures on the ballot; the meeting record did not include language of ballot timing, estimated revenue amounts, or projected tax impacts on individual parcels.
