Metroparks Toledo moves forward with levy on fall ballot; Chrys Peterson to lead committee
In a campaign that will feature some prominent community leaders, Lucas County voters will be asked to approve a 2-mill, 10-year property tax levy for Metroparks Toledo this November.
At the July 22 meeting, park commissioners unanimously agreed to place the levy on the fall ballot. If approved, it will generate $10.6 million per year and cost the owner of a $100,000 home $70 annually.
