SCT trustees: Support road and bridge levy May 4

The Sugar Creek Township board of trustees would like to encourage residents to vote on May 4, 2021. We have filed a renewal of our existing road and bridge levy for the May ballot and ask for your support. This levy has been a main source of funding for the cost of repair and maintenance of the township’s 46 miles of roads and bridges. The existing levy was first passed in 1985 as a 4 year, 2 mill levy and has been renewed eight times. It is currently being collected at a rate of approximately 1.25 mills due to the increase in real estate values.

The township employs one full time and one part time employee to maintain the roadways throughout the township. Our road supervisor continually looks for ways to save money while providing the best road surface for our residents and visitors. He follows manufacturer recommendations to maximize the life of our equipment. We encourage residents to say yes to our road and bridge renewal levy and help continue this important source of funding for our township. Thank you.
