Voters in western Hamilton County will face these issues in November: Countywide: 2.47-mill levy for mental-health services for people who cannot afford to pay. If it passes, taxes on a $100,000 home will rise from $32 a year to $46.
Voters also could create a county charter for the sole purpose of voting yes or no on a Broadway Commons site for baseball.
Cleves: Voters will be asked whether to dissolve their village, reducing it to a neighborhood in Miami Township. Village services have led to high local taxes, proponents say.
Finneytown: The school district will ask for a 1.5-mill levy to make improvements to school buildings.
Forest Park: Charter changes would require the direct election of the city manager and the city solicitor. Other changes would provide credit for earnings and income taxes that residents pay to other cities and make it easier to amend the charter.
Glendale: The village is seeking to renew its operating levy. A four-year, 7.3-mill levy would replace the current five-year, 9.8-mill levy, with a slight increase in taxes.
Great Oaks Vocational School: A 2.7-mill levy for 10 years to replace and increase the expiring levy.
Miami Township: The waste district is proposing a 1.5-mill levy for five years to replace an expiring levy.
North College Hill: The schools are proposing a 3.9-mill permanent levy to renovate buildings. The levy would raise $450,000 a year and cost the owner of a $100,000 home $120 annually.
Princeton School District: An additional 6.5-mill levy to cover operating costs.
Southwest schools: The district hopes to pass a 3.94-mill bond issue, which, over 29 years, would pay for 32 new classrooms and other building additions.
