B. The County Auditors offer
some tools to show you where your taxes go:
In Franklin
County:
1.
Go to the Franklin County Auditor's Website to search by Parcel ID, Owner Name, or Street Address and enter
your search criteria.
2. Under Parcel Info, click
on Tax Distribution and you will see where your own tax money goes.
3. Under Parcel Info, click
on Levy Info and you will get information on calculating specific levy amounts for your property.
In Delaware
County:
1. Go to the Delaware County Auditor's Website at the bottom of the page, clink on the link which reads Start your
Search. Enter your search criteria by Parcel ID, Owner Name, or Street Address.
2. On the Summary page,
you can locate your Tax district to use with the table above to calculate where your taxes go.
Unfortunately, unlike Franklin County, the site will not calculate these amounts for you. Also on the Summary tab, at the bottom of the page you can find your total amount of property tax for your
property.
3. By clicking on "Levy Info.," you will get information on calculating specific levy amounts for your property. The March 2004 proposed School Levy is 5 mills.
As of February 6, 2004, the Delaware County Auditor's site has not been updated from the November levy which was 7.5
mills, so you will need to use the Tax Estimator to calculate the 5.0 mill monthly payment for your home.
