Road Millage Proposal

It is proposed that Standish Township levy a tax of 1.00 Mill. The proposed millage includes (1) a renewal of 0.9955 mill that was previously approved by voters in 2022 and (2) an increase of 0.0045 mill as new additional millage. This renewal and increase would restore the Township's authority, which was reduced by law, to levy a total of 1.00 mill. The money raised would be used to fund the construction, preservation, improvements, repairs, and maintenance of the roads within Standish Township. This would cost you about $1.00 for each $1,000.00 of your taxable real and personal property. The charge would apply each year from 2026 through 2029, inclusive. Approximately $64,773.48 would be raised in the first year. Should the proposed renewal and increase be approved?
