Shall the previous voted increase in the tax limitation imposed under Article IX, Sec. 6 of the Michigan Constitution in Manchester Township, of 0.6500 mills ($0.65 per $1,000 of taxable value) reduced to .6444 mills by required millage rollbacks be renewed at .6444 mills ($0.6444 per $1,000.00 of taxable value) and levied for five additional years, 2028 through 2032 inclusive, for fire protection services within Manchester Township, raising an estimated $131,000.00 in 2028 of which a portion may be disbursed under a fire services agreement to another local unit(s) for fire protection services to the Township?

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 and renews millage that will expire with the 2026 tax levy. Shall the currently authorized millage rate limitation of 18.487 mills ($18.487 on each $1,000 of taxable valuation) on the amount of taxes which may be assessed against all property, except principal residence and other property exempted by law, in Clinton Community Schools, Lenawee and Washtenaw Counties, Michigan, be renewed for a period of 6 years, 2027 to 2032, 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 $1,580,000 (this is a renewal of millage that will expire with the 2026 tax levy)?
