City Council

Fire Fund Levy: May 8 - Thank You!

The Council and Staff of the City of Bellbrook want to thank voters for supporting our Fire Department and its mission to provide exceptional service. The continued support of the community has allowed the department to be adequately staffed and equipped while being fiscally responsible stewards of tax dollars received. 

The City of Bellbrook is one of a few cities in the state of Ohio that does not levy an income tax on its residents. The City relies primarily on property taxes to fund our necessary services, such as fire and EMS services, provided to residents.

Moving Forward

This levy will allow for the hiring of one additional full-time Firefighter/Paramedic. It will also allow an increase in the number of scheduled part-time hours. These changes will improve the consistency of staffing for emergency responses. The Fire Department will now have authorized staffing of 2 full-time Firefighter/Paramedics and 2 part-time Firefighter/EMTs on a 24 hour per day basis.

Fiscal Responsibility

The city prides itself on being fiscally conservative, responsible, and transparent.  For more information on city finances, go to the Finance page.

Again, we thank you for your support!
