This proposal will allow the Township to levy 2.00 mills to fund fire service and medical rescue in Northfield Township. The sole prior millage to fund fire service and medical rescue expired with the 2016 levy.
Shall the limitation of the amount of taxes which may be imposed on taxable property in the Township of Northfield, County of Washtenaw, Michigan, be increased, as provided by Section 6 of Article IX of the Michigan Constitution, 1963, by 2.00 mills ($2.00 per thousand dollars of taxable value) for a period of five (5) years, 2017 to 2021, inclusive, for the purpose of providing funds for fire and medical rescue services including equipment in Northfield Township? It is estimated that 2.00 mills would raise approximately $682,654 when first levied in 2017.
