After a high-turnout, contentious presidential election in November, residents of Stark County's three cities with partisan elections who vote in the May 4 primary election will select their party's nominees for city council seats. The deadline for candidates to file petitions and for local governments to place issues on the ballot was 4 p.m. Wednesday. Residents of the Louisville City School District will decide whether to grant the district's request for a property tax increase. Voters in Plain Township will choose whether they want to pay more in taxes to fund township parks. Voters in adjoining Lake Township will consider whether they want to pay more in property taxes for fire coverage. And residents of Marlboro Township will decide whether to pay more in property taxes to fund their township police force.
