Rails AJAX Missing Template Error with link_to Delete

I am trying to AJAX-ify a to do type app and just finished dealing with this problem for my create method (see [here][1]). Now the delete method is acting up, but I can't use the previous solution (moving the remote: true from the submit to the form_for line) because the deletion is done via link_to.

Here's my tasks#index action:

  def index
    @create_task = Task.new
    @tasks = Task.all
    @one_time = Task.where(frequency: "OneTime", completed: false, user_id: current_user.id)
    @one_time_done = Task.where(frequency: "OneTime", completed: true, user_id: current_user.id)
    @daily = Task.where(frequency: "Daily", completed: false, user_id: current_user.id)
    @daily_done = Task.where(frequency: "Daily", completed: true, user_id: current_user.id)
    @weekly = Task.where(frequency: "Weekly", completed: false, user_id: current_user.id)
    @weekly_done = Task.where(frequency: "Weekly", completed: true, user_id: current_user.id)
    @monthly = Task.where(frequency: "Monthly", completed: false, user_id: current_user.id)
    @monthly_done = Task.where(frequency: "Monthly", completed: true, user_id: current_user.id)
  end

And my tasks#destroy action:

  def destroy
    @one_time = Task.where(frequency: "OneTime", completed: false, user_id: current_user.id)
    @one_time_done = Task.where(frequency: "OneTime", completed: true, user_id: current_user.id)
    @daily = Task.where(frequency: "Daily", completed: false, user_id: current_user.id)
    @daily_done = Task.where(frequency: "Daily", completed: true, user_id: current_user.id)
    @weekly = Task.where(frequency: "Weekly", completed: false, user_id: current_user.id)
    @weekly_done = Task.where(frequency: "Weekly", completed: true, user_id: current_user.id)
    @monthly = Task.where(frequency: "Monthly", completed: false, user_id: current_user.id)
    @monthly_done = Task.where(frequency: "Monthly", completed: true, user_id: current_user.id)

    if @task.destroy
        respond_to do |format|
          format.js
          format.html
      end
    else
      flash[:warning] = "Oops! Something went wrong!"
    end

  end

Here is my delete link_to (from a partial):

   <%= link_to task_path(task), method: :delete, remote: true do %>
        <i class="icon ion-close-circled" id=(task.id + "task") style="margin-left: 5px"></i>
   <% end %>

Rendered on tasks/index.html.erb like so:

<div id="onetime-todo"><%= render partial: 'items', locals: { task: @one_time } %></div>

Here's my delete.js.erb:

$("#onetime-todo").html("<%= escape_javascript(render partial: 'items', locals: { task: @one_time }) %>")
$("#onetime-done").html("<%= escape_javascript(render partial: 'done', locals: { task: @one_time_done }) %>")

$("#daily-todo").html("<%= escape_javascript(render partial: 'items', locals: { task: @daily }) %>")
$("#daily-done").html("<%= escape_javascript(render partial: 'done', locals: { task: @daily_done }) %>")

$("#weekly-todo").html("<%= escape_javascript(render partial: 'items', locals: { task: @weekly }) %>")
$("#weekly-done").html("<%= escape_javascript(render partial: 'done', locals: { task: @weekly_done }) %>")

$("#monthly-todo").html("<%= escape_javascript(render partial: 'items', locals: { task: @monthly }) %>")
$("#monthly-done").html("<%= escape_javascript(render partial: 'done', locals: { task: @monthly_done }) %>")

And finally my irritating server log:

It bothers me that this error keeps occurring with each method. The deletion does happen, it just necessitates a refresh to appear on the page. Anyone see what's happening here?
