Mike Bacon, Auditor, shared information he received from Department of Development Services certifying for the renewable energy sources. Mike follows the Department of Taxation opinions. Clarification of distribution of PILOT. Tax levies are from three sources: tax levies, fixed-rate levies and fixed-sum levies. When property value is exempt there is no change to the rate of inside mills or fixed-rate levies to compensate for the loss of taxable value. Fixed-sum levies are guaranteed to raise a fixed sum of revenue every year –the remaining taxpayers pay more to prevent the revenue loss. Examples: school district emergency levies and bond levies. This information is from the Ohio Department of Taxation.
