10 TV: Voters overwhelmingly approved a replacement levy for Franklin County Metro Parks on Tuesday. The 0.75-mill property tax will generate an estimated $215 million over the next 10 years… Metro Parks plans to build three new parks with the money. The new parks will be located in Plain Township north of New Albany, in southern Franklin County along the Scioto River, and in the southeastern part of the county between Groveport and Canal Winchester. The new levy, which is higher than the levy it is replacing, gained approval from 58 percent of voters despite the difficult economy. The levy will increase the annual tax per $100,000 of property value for a homeowner to $23, from $13, beginning next year.
