Shall the currently authorized millage rate limitation of 18 mills ($18.00 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 Tri-County Area Schools, Montcalm, Kent and Newaygo Counties, Michigan, be renewed for the year 2014, to provide funds for operating purposes; the estimate of the revenue the school district will collect if the millage is approved and levied in 2014 is approximately $2,450,000 (this is a renewal of millage which will expire with the 2013 tax levy)?[1][2] |
