There are no Brookfield Township races on the November general election ballot, but there are two local questions.
Brookfield Police Department is seeking renewal of a five-year, 2-mill levy. The levy would not cost any additional money to taxpayers as the levy collects the same amount of money it did when it was first approved in 2004. The levy is crucial to the department’s finances, accounting for about 25 percent of the budget, officials said. It raises about $250,000 a year. The levy was last approved in 2019 by 710-325 votes.
La Palma Family Restaurant and Bar is asking voters in Precinct K to allow on- and off-premises sales of beer and wine and Sunday sales.
There are several county-wide ballot questions that Brookfield voters will weigh in on:
- Trumbull Career and Technical Center is seeking renewal of a 10-year, 2.4-mill levy for current expenses.
- Trumbull County Children Services Board is seeking renewal of a 10-year, 0.8-mill levy for current expenses.
- Trumbull County is seeking renewal of a 10-year, 1-mill levy for alcohol- and drug-addiction and mental health programs.
- Trumbull County is seeking a replacement of a 5-year, 0.75-mill levy for senior services. Approval of this levy would add onto a property owner’s tax bill.
- Trumbull County is seeking renewal of a 10-year, 2.25-mill levy for Trumbull County Board of Developmental Disabilities.
