  • Guernsey County passed a new 1 mill, 10-year levy with 59.2% voting yes.
  • Sandusky County passed a new 0.8 mill, 5-year levy with 52.8% voting yes.
  • Geauga County renewed its 0.7 mill, 5-year levy with 59.5% voting yes.

The Tri-County Board serving Darke, Miami and Shelby Counties operates with a 0.6 mill, 5-year levy. It was last renewed by voters in 2011, for the 2012-2016 period. The levy generates approximately $2.3 million per year, almost one-third of the Board's annual revenue.
