Hartford Public Schools Operating Millage Renewal Proposal

Millage Renewal with Increase18 mills5 years (2027–2031)

YESA YES vote continues the existing levy of 18 mills for 5 years — generally no increase over what you pay now, plus the restored or added amount described.

NOA NO vote lets the current millage expire; the service it funds would need cuts or other revenue.

Official ballot language

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 .5 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. Shall the currently authorized millage rate limitation on the amount of taxes which may be assessed against all property, except principal residence and other property exempted by law, in Hartford Public Schools, Van Buren County, Michigan, be renewed by 18.5 mills ($18.50 on each $1,000 of taxable valuation) for a period of 5 years, 2027 to 2031, inclusive, to provide funds for operating purposes; the estimate of the revenue the school district will collect if the millage is approved and 18 mills are levied in 2027 is approximately $1,382,534 (this is a renewal of millage that will expire with the 2026 tax levy)?
