THERE IS 1 SCHOOL DISTRICT PROPOSAL ON THE BALLOT.
OPERATING
MILLAGE
RENEWAL
PROPOSAL
This proposal will allow the school district to levy the statutory rate of 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
2014 tax levy.
Shall the currently authorized millage rate limitation of 18 mills ($18 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 Almont Community Schools, Counties of
Lapeer, St. Clair, Macomb and Oakland, Michigan, be renewed for a period of 4 years, 2015 to
2018, inclusive, to provide funds for operating purposes; the estimate of the revenue the school
district will collect if the millage is approved and levied in 2015 is approximately $877,486 (this is
a renewal of millage which will expire with the 2014 tax levy)
