City of Kentwood Charter Amendment Proposal
Shall Section 8.1, Chapter VIII, of the Charter be amended to authorize a new, permanent additional millage of up to one and ninety‐five hundredths (1.95) mills ($1.95 per $1,000.00 of taxable value), upon the taxable value of all real and personal property in the city for police and fire protection? (If authorized and levied, the additional 1.95 mills are estimated to raise $5,108,228 in 2024, the first year of the levy. To the extent required by law, a portion of the revenues from this millage will be captured and disbursed to the City s Brownfield Redevelopment Fund.)
