Spencer Township Proposal -- 1.00 Mill for Fire Protection Purposes
Shall the previously voted increase in the Township of Spencer tax rate limitation, currently 1.00 mill ($1.00 per $1,000 of taxable value), be renewed and levied in the years 2012-2016, both inclusive, subject to reduction as provided by law, on taxable property in the Township? The purpose of this levy is to provide fire protection within the Township, including the operation, maintenance and equipping of the Township Fire Department, and the acquisition and maintenance of fire and rescue vehicles, apparatus, equipment, building and other improvements for fire protection purposes. It is estimated that a levy of 1.00 mills would provide revenue of $117,670 in the first calendar year. The revenue from this millage levy will be disbursed to the Township of Spencer.
