Voters of Harlem, Marlboro, Oxford Townships and the Village of Ashley will decide on tax levies on the Nov. 8 ballot.

• Harlem Township trustees have approved of a resolution on May 18 to place a replacement tax of 3.5 mills for each one dollar of valuation amounting to 35 cents for each $100 of valuation for 4-years commencing in 2016 and first due in calendar year 2017.

The Delaware County Auditor’s Office said the levy would cost a homeowner with a $100,000 market value home $122.50 per year.

The current levy will expire at the end of 2016, according to Dale Fling, Harlem Township fire chief. “The tax is replacement to keep current,” he said.

The replacement tax is for providing and maintaining fire equipment, buildings, and payment of part-time and volunteer firefighter companies. It is to be used to pay the firefighter employers’ contribution required under the Ohio Revised Code and for the purchase of ambulance equipment or for the provision of ambulance, paramedic or other emergency medical services by the fire department.

The levy is a 5-year levy commencing in 2016 that is first due in calendar year 2017. The purpose of the levy is for the general construction, resurfacing and repair of roads and bridges.

According to the township’s fiscal officer, Joyce Leienberger, the current 5-year levy yielded $30,400 per year while the 5-year replacement will yield $40,600 per year.

Leienberger said in 2015 the township’s cost for roads and bridges “out of the levy was $48,300.” Leienberger said a remainder from the previous year was used in the 2015 cost. The current levy is due to expire at the end of 2016.
