Question 1 - Senior Citizens Service Renewal Millage Proposal

For the sole purpose of continuing funding necessary to maintain and expand services for senior citizens in Gratiot County, shall the previously voted increase on the Constitutional limitation upon the total amount of taxes which may be assessed in one (1) year upon all property within the County of Gratiot, Michigan, be continued and renewed at up to 0.6492 mill ($0.6492 per $1,000 of taxable value) for a period of four (4) years, 2022 through 2025, inclusive? If approved and levied in full, this millage will raise an estimated $1,091,726 for providing funds to maintain and expand services for senior citizens in Gratiot County in the first calendar year of the levy based on taxable value. As required by State law, a small portion of the millage may be captured by the Downtown Development Authorities of the Cities of Alma and St. Louis; and the Brownfield Redevelopment Authorities of Gratiot County, the Cities of Alma and St. Louis, the Village of Ashley, and the Township of Elba.
