If you think for one minute that the income tax issue is over then you may want to think again. You are dealing with people that can make a department go from $65,000 to $162,300.00 overnight! You are dealing with people who do things that are just plain wrong! You are dealing with people who want to build a city with your money! Clickem and look! How We Got A Full Time Administrator Huge Debt Coming! Menz Says "the earnings tax will help go a long way" Your also dealing with people who are going to need more of your money to make all this happen. Not only do I believe that we will be taxed but if their plans go through 1% or 1.1% just is NOT GOING TO BE ENOUGH! There are villages in Ohio that have from 3 to 5 % income tax. I think we will have a choice in that matter but with the mis-information that they continually send out such as the threat letter of August 11th, who knows what people will believe and might be scared into voting for! If passed or imposed the tax is not going to be free. Who do you think will handle the paper work. The current administration can't even keep up with 16 contacts that comprise our debt. Menz tells me there will be more from Duke Energy and some Health care agreements but so far I haven't received any and it has been almost a month. I have asked for public records for any plans for the tax they want to impose/put to vote and I may be able to let you know their estimated cost. I do think there will have to be some new positions open because many of the villages that have a tax have "Tax Administers"(ORC - Tax administrator means the individual charged with direct responsibility for administration of a tax on income levied by a municipal corporation) "Fiscal Officers".... OH NO, you don't suppose Oh by the way the village can audit you, charge you and fine you! AND THAT IS SCARY! But there is a really bright side to all of this! If we dissolve the Village there will never be an income/earnings tax in Amelia because townships cannot charge income tax by Ohio Law! Hooray!!! The section below is the ORC(Ohio Revised Codes) covering Municipal taxes. I just wanted you to see what the Village and YOU are faced with which is another IRS!

(2)(a) Except as provided in division (A)(2)(b) of this section, “qualifying loss” means the excess, if any, of the total amount of compensation the payment of which is deferred pursuant to a nonqualified deferred compensation plan over the total amount of income the taxpayer has recognized for federal income tax purposes for all taxable years on a cumulative basis as compensation with respect to the taxpayer’s receipt of money and property attributable to distributions in connection with the nonqualified deferred compensation plan. (b) If, for one or more taxable years, the taxpayer has not paid to one or more municipal corporations income tax imposed on the entire amount of compensation the payment of which is deferred pursuant to a nonqualified deferred compensation plan, then the “qualifying loss” is the product of the amount resulting from the calculation described in division (A)(2)(a) of this section computed without regard to division (A)(2)(b) of this section and a fraction the numerator of which is the portion of such compensation on which the taxpayer has paid income tax to one or more municipal corporations and the denominator of which is the total amount of compensation the payment of which is deferred pursuant to a nonqualified deferred compensation plan.

(3) “Qualifying tax rate” means the applicable tax rate for the taxable year for the which the taxpayer paid income tax to a municipal corporation with respect to any portion of the total amount of compensation the payment of which is deferred pursuant to a nonqualified deferred compensation plan. If different tax rates applied for different taxable years, then the “qualifying tax rate” is a weighted average of those different tax rates. The weighted average shall be based upon the tax paid to the municipal corporation each year with respect to the nonqualified deferred compensation plan. (B)(1) Except as provided in division (D) of this section, a refundable credit shall be allowed against the income tax imposed by a municipal corporation for each qualifying loss sustained by a taxpayer during the taxable year. The amount of the credit shall be equal to the product of the qualifying loss and the qualifying tax rate. (2) A taxpayer shall claim the credit allowed under this section from each municipal corporation to which the taxpayer paid municipal income tax with respect to the nonqualified deferred compensation plan in one or more taxable years. (3) If a taxpayer has paid tax to more than one municipal corporation with respect to the nonqualified deferred compensation plan, the amount of the credit that a taxpayer may claim from each municipal corporation shall be calculated on the basis of each municipal corporation’s proportionate share of the total municipal corporation income tax paid by the taxpayer to all municipal corporations with respect to the nonqualified deferred compensation plan. (4) In no case shall the amount of the credit allowed under this section exceed the cumulative income tax that a taxpayer has paid to a municipal corporation for all taxable years with respect to the nonqualified deferred compensation plan. (C)(1) For purposes of this section, municipal corporation income tax that has been withheld with respect to a nonqualified deferred compensation plan shall be considered to have been paid by the taxpayer with respect to the nonqualified deferred compensation plan. (2) Any municipal income tax that has been refunded or otherwise credited for the benefit of the taxpayer with respect to a nonqualified deferred compensation plan shall not be considered to have been paid to the municipal corporation by the taxpayer. (D) The credit allowed under this section is allowed only to the extent the taxpayer’s qualifying loss is attributable to: (1) The insolvency or bankruptcy of the employer who had established the nonqualified deferred compensation plan; or (2) The employee’s failure or inability to satisfy all of the employer’s terms and conditions necessary to receive the nonqualified deferred compensation. Effective Date: 09-26-2003 (A) As used in this section: (1) “Other payer” means any person, other than an individual’s employer or the employer’s agent, that pays an individual any amount included in the federal gross income of the individual. (2) “Qualifying wages” means wages, as defined in section 3121(a) of the Internal Revenue Code, without regard to any wage limitations, adjusted as follows: (a) Deduct the following amounts: (i) Any amount included in wages if the amount constitutes compensation attributable to a plan or program described in section 125 of the Internal Revenue Code; (ii) For purposes of division (B) of this section, any amount included in wages if the amount constitutes payment on account of sickness or accident disability. (b) Add the following amounts: (i) Any amount not included in wages solely because the employee was employed by the employer prior to April 1, 1986; (ii) Any amount not included in wages because the amount arises from the sale, exchange, or other disposition of a stock option, the exercise of a stock option, or the sale, exchange, or other disposition of stock purchased under a stock option and the municipal corporation has not, by resolution or ordinance, exempted the amount from withholding and tax. Division (A)(2)(b)(ii) of this section applies only to those amounts constituting ordinary income. (iii) Any amount not included in wages if the amount is an amount described in section 401(k) or 457 of the Internal Revenue Code. Division (A)(2)(b)(iii) of this section applies only to employee contributions and employee deferrals. (iv) Any amount that is supplemental unemployment compensation benefits described in section 3402(o)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code and not included in wages. (c) Deduct any amount attributable to a nonqualified deferred compensation plan or program described in section 3121(v)(2)(C) of the Internal Revenue Code if the compensation is included in wages and has, by resolution or ordinance, been exempted from taxation by the municipal corporation. (d) Deduct any amount included in wages if the amount arises from the sale, exchange, or other disposition of a stock option, the exercise of a stock option, or the sale, exchange, or other disposition of stock purchased under a stock option and the municipal corporation has, by resolution or ordinance, exempted the amount from withholding and tax. (B) For taxable years beginning after 2003, no municipal corporation shall require any employer or any agent of any employer or any other payer, to withhold tax with respect to any amount other than qualifying wages. Nothing in this section prohibits an employer from withholding tax on a basis greater than qualifying wages. (C) An employer is not required to make any withholding with respect to an individual’s disqualifying disposition of an incentive stock option if, at the time of the disqualifying disposition, the individual is not an employee of the corporation with respect to whose stock the option has been issued. (D)(1) An employee is not relieved from liability for a tax by the failure of the employer to withhold the tax as required by a municipal corporation or by the employer’s exemption from the requirement to withhold the tax. (2) The failure of an employer to remit to the municipal corporation the tax withheld relieves the employee from liability for that tax unless the employee colluded with the employer in connection with the failure to remit the tax withheld. (E) Compensation deferred before June 26, 2003, is not subject to any municipal corporation income tax or municipal income tax withholding requirement to the extent the deferred compensation does not constitute qualifying wages at the time the deferred compensation is paid or distributed.

(3) On any annual municipal income tax return, a box or other space shall be included whereby a taxpayer may elect to authorize a return preparer to communicate with the tax administrator about matters pertaining to the return. The return or instructions accompanying the return shall indicate that, by making the election, the taxpayer authorizes the tax administrator to contact the return preparer concerning questions that arise during the processing of the return and authorizes the return preparer only to provide the administrator with information that is missing from the return, to contact the administrator for information about the processing of the return or the status of the taxpayer’s refund or payments, and to respond to notices about mathematical errors, offsets, or return preparation that the taxpayer has received from the administrator and has shown to the return preparer. (D) Except as otherwise provided in section 718.051 of the Revised Code, beginning January 1, 2001, any taxpayer that has requested an extension for filing a federal income tax return may request an extension for the filing of a municipal income tax return. The taxpayer shall make the request by filing a copy of the taxpayer’s request for a federal filing extension with the individual or office charged with the administration of the municipal income tax. The request for extension shall be filed not later than the last day for filing the municipal income tax return as prescribed by ordinance or rule of the municipal corporation and division (B) of this section. The extended due date of the municipal income tax return shall be the last day of the month following the month to which the due date of the federal income tax return has been extended. A municipal corporation may deny a taxpayer’s request for extension only if the taxpayer fails to timely file the request, fails to file a copy of the request for the federal extension, owes the municipal corporation any delinquent income tax or any penalty, interest, assessment, or other charge for the late payment or nonpayment of income tax, or has failed to file any required income tax return, report, or other related document for a prior tax period. The granting of an extension for filing a municipal corporation income tax return does not extend the last date for paying the tax without penalty unless the municipal corporation grants an extension of that date. Effective Date: 09-26-2003; 2007 HB224 03-24-2008 (A) As used in this section, “Ohio business gateway” means the online computer network system, initially created by the department of administrative services under section 125.30 of the Revised Code, that allows private businesses to electronically file business reply forms with state agencies and includes any successor electronic filing and payment system.

An extension of time to file is not an extension of the time to pay any tax due. (C) For taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2005, a taxpayer subject to any municipal corporation’s tax on the net profit from a business or profession may file any municipal income tax return or estimated municipal income return, and may make payment of amounts shown to be due on such returns, by using the Ohio business gateway.

(E) Nothing in this section affects the due dates for filing employer withholding tax returns. (F) No municipal corporation shall be required to pay any fee or charge for the operation or maintenance of the Ohio business gateway. (G) The use of the Ohio business gateway by municipal corporations, taxpayers, or other persons pursuant to this section does not affect the legal rights of municipalities or taxpayers as otherwise permitted by law. This state shall not be a party to the administration of municipal income taxes or to an appeal of a municipal income tax matter, except as otherwise specifically provided by law. (H)(1) The tax commissioner shall adopt rules establishing: (a) The format of documents to be used by taxpayers to file returns and make payments through the Ohio business gateway; and (b) The information taxpayers must submit when filing municipal income tax returns through the Ohio business gateway. (2) The commissioner shall consult with the Ohio business gateway steering committee before adopting the rules described in division (H)(1) of this section. (I) Nothing in this section shall be construed as limiting or removing the ability of any municipal corporation to administer, audit, and enforce the provisions of its municipal income tax.

Effective Date: 07-26-2000 On and after January 1, 2002, each municipal corporation that imposes a tax on income shall make electronic versions of any rules or ordinances governing the tax available to the public through the internet, including, but not limited to, ordinances or rules governing the rate of tax; payment and withholding of taxes; filing any prescribed returns, reports, or other documents; dates for filing or paying taxes, including estimated taxes; penalties, interest, assessment, and other collection remedies; rights of taxpayers to appeal; and procedures for filing appeals. On and after that date, any municipal corporation that requires taxpayers to file income tax returns, reports, or other documents shall make blanks of such returns, reports, or documents, and any instructions pertaining thereto, available to the public electronically through the internet. Electronic versions of rules, ordinances, blanks, and instructions shall be made available either by posting them on the electronic site established by the tax commissioner under section 5703.49 of the Revised Code or by posting them on an electronic site established by the municipal corporation that is accessible through the internet. If a municipal corporation establishes such an electronic site, the municipal corporation shall incorporate an electronic link between that site and the site established pursuant to section 5703.49 of the Revised Code, and shall provide to the tax commissioner the uniform resource locator of the site established pursuant to this division.
