The levy would cost the owner of a home valued at $100,000 approximately $23.45 a year and would generate $200,000 annually for the office, according to the auditor's office.

The county agricultural society has an additional .19-mill, five-year levy for purchasing, maintaining or improving the fairgrounds.

The agriculture society levy would cost the owner of a home valued at $100,000 approximately $6.65 a year. The levy would raise $57,112 annually.
