Watervliet Township Fire Levy Renewals, 2 (May 2011)
From Ballotpedia
Two Watervliet Township Fire Levy Renewal measures were on the May 3, 2011 ballot in the township of Watervliet which is in Berrien County.
Both measures were approved
- YES 116
- NO 25[1]
Though two questions were on the ballot, both were the same. They sought to renew the current fire levy which is set at a rate of $1 per $1,000 of assessed property value for a further four years in order to continue to pay for fire protection services offered in the township.[2]
