Dunn bill cuts Lorain county tax Levy and road funds
The Dunn bill abolishes the .3 mill road construction levy and the .15 mill school levy, relieving Ohio taxpayers of about 6.59 million dollars in direct state taxes. In Elyria and Lorain County residents, the changes mean substantial savings on assessed valuations, with totals running into the hundreds of thousands. The measure passed the house 93 to 1 and heads to the governor for approval, promising a broader state saving next year though with concerns over school district funding. Meanwhile related court actions include a divorce petition from Godette in Cherlin and news of a youth incident in Indiana.
