Voters overwhelmingly approved a fire and EMS levy renewal during Tuesday’s special election.

More than 75 percent of voters in Brookville, Clay Twp., and the villages of Verona and Phillipsburg who cast ballots in the election were in favor of the 2.5-mill continuing levy, according to final but unofficial results from the Montgomery County Board of Elections.

The levy was the only issue on the ballot in Montgomery County.

Turnout for the special election was low, with 354, or 5.7 percent, of the 6,218 registered voters casting ballots, according to the elections board. Unofficial results show it passed 267-87.
