Shall the limitation on the amount of taxes which may be assessed against all property, except principal residence and other property exempted by law, in Ovid-Elsie Area Schools, Clinton, Shiawassee, Saginaw and Gratiot Counties, Michigan, be increased by 17.9694 mills ($17.9694 on each $1,000 of taxable valuation) for a period of 11 years, 2014 to 2024, inclusive, to provide funds for operating purposes (17.4694 mills of the above is a renewal of millage which will expire with the 2013 tax levy and 0.5000 mill is a restoration of millage lost as a result of the reduction required by the Michigan Constitution of 1963); the estimate of the revenue the school district will collect if the millage is approved and levied in 2014 is approximately $638,242?[1][2] |
