What's on the ballot in Handy Township, Livingston County

Shall the tax limitation on all taxable property within Handy Township, Livingston County, Michigan, be increased and the Township be authorized to levy annually a new additional millage in an amount not to exceed 1.0 mill ($1.00 per each $1,000 of taxable value), for a period of four (4) years, 2027 through 2030 inclusive, for the purpose of constructing, preserving, improving, repairing, and maintaining roads and bridges in the Township? The estimate of the revenue the Township will collect in the first year of levy (2027) if the millage is approved is approximately $471,000. By law, a portion of the revenue collected may be subject to capture by the Village of Fowlerville's Downtown Development Authority and Local Development Finance Authority.

This proposal will allow the school district to continue to levy the statutory rate of not to exceed 18 mills on all property, except principal residence and other property exempted by law, required for the school district to receive its revenue per pupil foundation allowance. The remaining .4411 mill is only available to be levied to restore millage lost as a result of the reduction required by the Michigan Constitution of 1963 and will only be levied to the extent necessary to restore that reduction.
