Question 2 - 9-1-1 Millage Renewal Proposition

This proposal is a renewal of the previously approved millage and will permit the County to continue to levy up to 0.50 mill ($0.50 cents per $1,000.00 of taxable valuation) to provide funds for the continued operations of the comprehensive countywide 9-1-1 Emergency Telephone and Central Dispatch System. This proposal being a renewal, shall the previous voted increase in the tax limitation imposed under Article IX, Sec. 6 of the Michigan Constitution on the amount of ad valorem taxes which may be levied by Antrim County, against all taxable property in the County, reduced to 0.4833 mills ($.4833 per $1,000 of taxable value) by the required millage rollbacks, be renewed and restored to the original authorized rate of 0.50 mills ($0.50 per $1,000 of taxable value) for a period of four (4) years, 2027 through 2030 inclusive, to provide continued operation funding of the comprehensive countywide 9-1-1 Emergency Telephone and Central Dispatch System? If approved and levied in its entirety, this millage would raise an estimated $1,400,519 for the County in 2027. By law, the Downtown Development Authority/Tax Increment Finance Authority (DDA/TIF) may capture a portion of the County's millage revenue generated from properties located within the DDA/TIF district to the extent provided in its tax increment financing plan and any applicable statutory exemptions or opt-out provisions.
