To: The Clinton Local, The Daily Telegram, Tecumseh Herald From: David P. Pray, Superintendent Clinton Community Schools 341 E. Michigan Clinton, MI 49236 Telephone (517) 456-6501 Subject: Item for Immediate Release Date: February 12, 2016 Non-Homestead Millage The Non-Homestead Millage Renewal Vote will be held on Tuesday, March 8, from 7:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. Michigan law allows all homeowners to vote so the 18 mill properties will be maintained. The 18 mills required by the State of Michigan since 1993/94 in order to receive maximum funding, known as the Total Foundation Allowance, from the State of Michigan. By law, if a district does not levy the full 18 mills on non-homestead properties, the State will not pay that district the full amount from State revenues designated for schools. Taxes on primary homes or places of residence (other than second homes) will not be affected by this vote. Should this millage fail Clinton Community Schools would lose approximately $947,703.
