Official ballot language
Shall the expired previously voted increase in the Charter Township of Kinross tax rate limitation, currently 1.4581 mills ($1.4581 per $1,000 of taxable value), be renewed and levied for a period of four (4) years, 2026-2029, both inclusive, and shall an additional 0.0419 mill ($0.0419 per $1,000 of taxable value) be approved and levied to restore previous millage reductions under the “Headlee Amendment” since this millage was last approved, resulting in the levy of 1.5000 mills ($1.50 per $1,000 of taxable value), subject to reduction as provided by law, on taxable property in the Township? The purpose of this levy is to provide funds to be used for maintenance, improvement, and repair of roads within the Township roads situated in Kinross Charter Township. It is estimated that a levy of 1.5000 mills would provide revenue of $96,542 in the first calendar year, of which $2,697 would result from the additional 0.0419 mill. The revenue from this millage levy will be disbursed to the Township.
