Proposition 2 - Veteran Affairs Millage Proposal

Shall the expired previously voted increases in the tax limitations in Lapeer County of 0.185 mills (.185 per $1,000 of taxable value), reduced to .1813 mills (0.1813 per $1,000 of taxable value) by the required millage rollbacks, be renewed at and increased up to the original voted 0.185 mills for 6 years, 2024 through 2029, inclusive, for the continued funding of the Lapeer County Department of Veterans' Affairs? If approved, this new additional millage would allow the County to levy up to 0.185 mills (replacing the two previously authorized Veterans' Affairs Millages which expired in 2023) for the purpose of continuing to support funding for the administration of Lapeer County's Department of Veterans' Affairs, raising an estimated $754,416.50 in the first year if approved and levied. A property with a taxable value of $100,000 would be annually taxed up to $18.50 for the millage. By operation of Michigan law, this millage will disburse revenue to certain local units of government including the City of Lapeer Downtown Development Authority and the City of Imlay City Downtown Development Authority.
