“I am proud that we are able to continue to keep our township tax rate low in the mist of the challenges over the past year due to the pandemic,” said Fall Creek Township Trustee Doug Allman.

The township has a food pantry available to Fall Creek residents experiencing food insecurity.

“Our food pantry is supported by donations through our Pantry Partner Program, as well as local non-profits and community service groups,” Allman said. “We have such a giving community to be able to support our residents in need solely through donations.”

The township partners with over 20 nonprofit organizations within Hamilton County to help meet the needs of residents who find themselves in a temporary challenging financial situation. Hamilton County’s townships were responsible for administrating COVID relief and Hamilton County Township Association grants.

“In addition to the day-to-day activities, there were 379 applications that our staff handled in conjunction with the HCTA program,” Allman said. “Our office was happy to step up to the additional workload to administer this program.”
