Shall there be a renewal of the previously approved authorization of the Genesee County Board of Commissioners to levy a tax of 0.1922 ($0.1922 per $1,000.00 of taxable property valuation) upon the taxable valuation of the property within Genesee County, as finally equalized, for each of the seven (7) years from 2028 through 2034, inclusive, for the purpose of supplementing and supporting operations and modernization of the Genesee County Animal Care Shelter? This is a renewal of the formerly named Genesee County Animal Control Shelter Millage that expires after the 2027 levy. The estimated revenue that will be collected during the first year this millage is authorized and levied is $2,710,105. In Genesee County, there are local authorities that capture and use for authorized purposes tax increment revenues from property taxes levied by the County. Such captured revenue would include a portion of the proposed millage levy. The total amount of captured tax increment revenues from the proposed millage levy in the first calendar year of the levy is estimated to be $102,335. The following such local authorities presently are expected to capture and receive disbursement of a portion of the County’s property tax levy: City of Clio Corridor Improvement Authority (“CIA”), Downtown Development Authority (“DDA”), and Neighborhood Improvement Authority (“NIA”); City of Davison DDA and Local Development Finance Authority (“LDFA”); City of Fenton DDA and LDFA; City of Grand Blanc DDA; City of Linden DDA; City of Montrose DDA; City of Swartz Creek DDA; Genesee County Brownfield Redevelopment Authority and Land Bank Authority; Davison Township DDA; Flint Township DDA, Beecher Road CIA, and Bristol Road CIA; Grand Blanc Township DDA; Mt. Morris Township Business Development Authority (“BDA”); Mundy Township Hill Road CIA; Vienna Township BDA; Village of Lennon DDA; Village of Otisville DDA; and Village of Otter Lake DDA. Other such local authorities could be created in the future
