Tax Calculator - 2025
A tool to calculate estimated levy costs using your actual county property valuation and tax records
This is a personal project I began 8–9 years ago to provide clear, unbiased financial facts—especially when both sides of a levy issue make bold claims. I’ve consulted with the Summit County Fiscal Office multiple times, most recently on April 7th, 2025 to ensure the accuracy of this calculator. Despite attempts by some activists to discredit it because they don’t like how the numbers are presented, I stand by the data and the way it's illustrated.
Find your property
Lets find your fiscal records. Start typing your street address. When you see it below click on the appropriate record. Then complete the survey and click "Find My Property" If you can't find your residence email me your address
Survey: Where do you stand now?
Survey: What’s Your Current Position?
I often hear a variety of strong opinions both for and against these issues. To better understand voter sentiment, I’m conducting this optional survey before sharing any results. If the ballot were in front of you right now, how would you vote on the Nordonia Schools Issue 10? Your responses are being gathered solely to measure overall voter sentiment.
In Favor
Opposed
Prefer not to say
Optionally, in your own words, why are you voting for or against Issue 10?
These comments will be shared with the Board of Education so they may better understand voter setiment - but will not be attributed to any individual. The comment field may be left blank.

Full Disclosure
I started building this calculator back in 2017 with the goal of providing unbiased data. A little about me: I’ve been serving as an elected member of the Macedonia City Council since January 2020. I also volunteered on the Nordonia Schools Steering Committee, which helped evaluate and recommend the construction of a new school campus—ultimately leading to Issue 5 being placed on the ballot several years ago. However, I never campaigned to pass Issue 5, and I felt then, as I do now, that it was up to the voters to decide its fate. I’ve never been affiliated with any of the groups or PACs supporting or opposing school levies because I want to remain impartial. My goal is to provide this website and its tools without any perception of bias or hidden agenda. I hope that, if you’ve read this far, you agree that I’ve succeeded in that.

Lastly, this website is intended for educational and entertainment purposes only. I cannot automatically account for factors like delinquent taxes, tax liens, special assessments, CAUV, homestead exemptions, owner occupancy credit tax reductions, or other variables that may affect your property taxes. While I've maintained this site since 2017 and have asked everyone from school officials to county representatives to review it for errors, there's always a chance that mistakes have been made, and the information provided might be incorrect. You accept that risk. By using this website, you acknowledge that all figures are a best effort and may be subject to human error. I am not a CPA or tax professional. Updated between 3/4 and 3/6 to more elaborately show alternate calculations - my original accessed * .005 math has not changed since day one.
