SUGARCREEK (WJER) - Voters proved their desire to maintain a full-time fire department, passing the 3.5-mill, 5-year replacement levy for fire and EMS services. The issue passed 202 to 90 Tuesday. Fire Chief Kevin Miller says it means their response times will remain unchanged for now. That levy will collect an additional $22,000 a year for the department to cover rising expenses.
