Courtland Township Proposal - Renewal of Fire Protection Millage
Shall the increase in the tax rate limitation for Courtland Township be renewed, and levied on all taxable property in the amount of .8825 mill ($0.8825 per $1,000 of taxable value) for the years 2012-2017, both inclusive? This proposal is for renewal of a previously authorized millage. The purpose of this special millage is to provide fire protection for the Township, including the operation of theTownship Fire Department, the purchase and maintenance of fire and rescue motor vehicles, apparatus and equipment, the maintenance of the Township fire stations, and the payment of any debt on fire stations, and the funds generated will be disbursed to the Township for those purposes. A levy of .8825 mill would prvide revenue of approximately $230,513.96 in the first calendar year of the renewal.
