Avon road levy to fund 2 mills for street work in Avon
Avon voters face a November decision on a 2 mill road levy to renew 16 mills and add 4 tenths of a mill for five years. Average homeowners would pay about 20 cents per $100 of valuation, replacing the prior 16 cents as valuations rise. The levy would fund resurfacing, repairs, materials, labor, and equipment maintenance. 1964 approval led to a reduction to 16 mills due to higher valuations and costs.
