Know Your Ballot: Village of Paulding

This year, the Village of Paulding has two issues before voters. The first is a permanent 1.1 percent municipal income tax for general municipal purposes. If this measure passes, Paulding residents would not see their local taxes increase much. Currently, Paulding has a 1% income tax and a .1% cemetery improvements tax, the latter of which expired on June 30. On an income of $2,000 a month, the total tax would be $22.00, whereas currently it is $20.00. The purposes included utilities and village services, such as garbage pickup.
