MI OC Blendon Township Millage Renewal Proposition 0.3 Mill For Public Library Services
Shall the previously voted increase in the Township of Blendon tax rate limitation imposed under Article IX, Sec. 6 of the Michigan Constitution, currently 0.2691 mill ($0.2691 per $1,000 of taxable value), be renewed and levied in the years 2026-2037, both inclusive, and shall an additional 0.0309 mill ($0.0309 per $1,000 of taxable value) be approved and levied to restore previous millage reductions under the “Headlee Amendment” since this millage was last approved, resulting in the levy of 0.3 mill ($0.30 per $1,000 of taxable value), subject to reduction as provided by law, on taxable property in the Township?The purpose of this levy is to continue the providing of public library services for the residents of the Township, by contracting with public libraries that are members of the Lakeland Library Cooperative. It is estimated that a levy of 0.3 mill would provide revenue of $142,822 in the first calendar year, of which $14,710 would result from the additional 0.0309 mill. The revenue from this millage levy will be disbursed to the Township of Blendon.
