This proposal will authorize the City of Milan to levy 0.50 mill for the purpose of funding activities and services for persons 60 years of age and older. Of the 0.50 mill, 0.4721 represents a renewal of the 0.50 mill authorization approved by the electors in 2013, which will expire with the 2021 tax levy and 0.0279 mill represents a restoration of that portion of the same authority which has been reduced by application of the Headlee Amendment.
Shall the limitation on the amount of taxes which may be imposed on taxable property in the City of Milan, Counties of Washtenaw and Monroe, Michigan be increased by 0.50 mills ($0.50 per thousand dollars of taxable value) for a period of eight (8) years, 2022 to 2029, inclusive, as a renewal of the 0.4721 mill previously authorized by the electors which expires with the 2021 levy plus new additional millage in the amount of 0.0279 mill, for the sole purpose of providing funds for services and programs for senior citizens (“older citizens”) pursuant to the authority provided to it under Act 39 of PA 1976, specifically MCL 400.576? It is estimated that, if levied, the 0.50 mills would raise approximately $93,921 when first levied in 2022.
