Know where you live !!
There seems to be a consensus that if your address says it is Morrow, Ohio; Loveland, Ohio, South Lebanon, Ohio; Goshen, Ohio; or Maineville, Ohio that you live in those areas. These are your postal delivery areas ONLY. They are not where you really live.
The Township would like for you to know where you actually live, since the Township’s road funding from State and a lot of funding that comes from the Federal level is calculated as per capita, or population. This is also true when you renew your vehicle license each year. There is $5.00 of every vehicle license fee that is returned to the Township each year to help with road maintenance. If you do not know where you live, other than to give your postal address that $5.00 will go to the village or city that you receive your mail from and the Township receives nothing.
There are many homes that are actually located within the boundaries of Hamilton Township and receive their mail from another village or city, including Maineville, Morrow, South Lebanon, Goshen, and Loveland.
You receive a property tax bill in February and July of each year and that bill will also tell you where your property is located. It will either mention the village you are in or it will say Hamilton Township. Please check this on your bill.
It is imperative that you know the difference, in order for Hamilton Township to receive the proper funding to help maintain the roads and other areas from the extra $5.00 that you spend for your license plates each year.
If you are not sure which area you are in PLEASE contact the Township, at 513-683-8520; the County Auditors Office at 513-925-235; or the Board of Elections at 513-925-1359.
There are also maps that you can pick up at the Township to tell you what area you are in.
Please make an effort to know where you live, so that you can benefit from your spending's.

The Hamilton Township Trustees are exploring the possibility of creating a Joint Economic Development District (JEDD) with the Village of Morrow. The areas within the JEDD will include all vacant property within the Hopewell Valley Subdivision and the property owned by the Little Miami School District at the corner of US 22-3 and Morrow-Cozaddale Road including the High School and Jr. High School. The Trustees have scheduled the first hearing for the creation of the JEDD at 6:00PM on July 7th, 2010 at the Hamilton Township Administration Building.
