SHAWNEE TOWNSHIP The Shawnee Township trustees held an emergency meeting Monday afternoon to ensure that the township’s proposed police levy makes it onto the May 4 ballot.
Shawnee Police Chief Mike Keith said after filing the planned levy, the Ohio Board of Elections communicated that the township would have to substitute its planned 10-year police levy with a five-year one to legally make it on the ballot. Trustees met Monday to make the change in order to submit the levy before this week’s filing deadline.
