Harrison County Proposed Tax Levy (Renewal): Ohio Cooperative Extension Service (0.75 mill, 5 years)
What does this measure do?
Harrison County would keep its property tax for the Ohio Cooperative Extension Service, which funds 4-H, farming, home economics, and economic development programs, for 5 more years. Property owners keep paying about $26 a year per $100,000 of home value; it is a renewal, not a new tax.

Proposed by: Harrison County Board of Commissioners
The county's three elected commissioners. Ohio law has them put county property taxes on the ballot. Keeping this tax needs voter approval because it is above what Ohio allows without a vote.
