Meigs County districts range from 16.46 to 22.93 mills, Athens County districts average 7.96 mills, and Columbus and Cleveland see large gains. The report credits tax relief measures including a 10 percent property tax reduction and a 65 plus Homestead Exemption for seniors, while noting eight urban districts gain from the tax.
