SCHOOL DISTRICT OF THE CITY OF LINCOLN PARK
COUNTY OF WAYNE
STATE OF MICHIGAN

SCHOOL OPERATING MILLAGE REPLACEMENT PROPOSAL FOR


NON-PRINCIPAL RESIDENCES

This proposal, which affects only non-principal residences and properties, would
support school operations including teachers, support staff, school counselors and
mental health professionals, school safety officers, food workers, school nurses,
bus drivers and other expenditures to operate the School District. The proposal
would replace, restore and extend the authority of the School District to levy the
statutory limit of 18 mills on all property excluding all principal residences and
other property exempt by law, which currently expires with the School District’s
2027 tax levy. This authority, if approved, would allow the School District to
continue to levy the statutory limit of 18 mills on rental, commercial and business
properties and specifically exclude all principal residences and other property
exempt by law, allowing the School District to continue to receive revenues at the
full per pupil foundation allowance permitted by the State in the event of future
Headlee rollbacks under the Michigan Constitution.

Shall the limitation on the amount of taxes which may be assessed against all
property, except principal residences and other property exempted by law, in the
School District of the City of Lincoln Park, County of Wayne, State of Michigan,
be increased, in the amount of 20 mills with 18 mills being the maximum allowable
levy ($18.00 on each $1,000 of taxable valuation), for a period of twenty (20) years,
2023 to 2042, inclusive, being a replacement of the current authorized millage
which will otherwise expire on December 31, 2027? This millage if approved and
levied, would provide estimated operating revenues to the School District of
$4,707,313.86 during the 2023 calendar year. All funds must be used on school
operations, and all funds are required to undergo an annual independent audit and
be publicly disclosed and detailed on a web site.

for the purpose of:

erecting, furnishing, and equipping additions to and remodeling,


furnishing and re-furnishing, and equipping and re-equipping school
facilities; acquiring and installing instructional technology;
purchasing school buses; and erecting, furnishing, equipping,
developing, and improving playgrounds, parking areas, sidewalks,
sites, and athletic fields and facilities?

The following is for informational purposes only:

The estimated millage that will be levied for the proposed bonds in 2023 is .7 mill ($0.70 on each
$1,000 of taxable valuation) for a -0- mill net increase over the prior year’s levy. The maximum
number of years the bonds of any series may be outstanding, exclusive of any refunding, is twenty-
two (22) years. The estimated simple average annual millage anticipated to be required to retire
this bond debt is 1.69 mills ($1.69 on each $1,000 of taxable valuation).

(Pursuant to State law, expenditure of bond proceeds must be audited and the proceeds cannot be
used for repair or maintenance costs, teacher, administrator or employee salaries, or other
operating expenses.)

WOODHAVEN-BROWNSTOWN SCHOOL DISTRICT
OPERATING MILLAGE RENEWAL PROPOSAL

This proposal will allow the school district to continue to levy the statutory rate of not
to exceed 18 mills on all property, except principal residence and other property
exempted by law, required for the school district to receive its revenue per pupil
foundation allowance and renews millage that will expire with the 2023 tax levy.

Shall the currently authorized millage rate limitation of 18.0078 mills ($18.0078 on each $1,000 of
taxable valuation) on the amount of taxes which may be assessed against all property, except
principal residence and other property exempted by law, in Woodhaven-Brownstown School District,
Wayne County, Michigan, be renewed for a period of 9 years, 2024 to 2032, inclusive, to provide
funds for operating purposes; the estimate of the revenue the school district will collect if the millage
is approved and 18 mills are levied in 2024 is approximately $7,997,804 (this is a renewal of millage
that will expire with the 2023 tax levy)?

5
WYANDOTTE CITY CHARTER AMENDMENT
FOR OPERATING MILLAGE

Shall Section 5 of Chapter XIII of the City Charter of the City of Wyandotte be
amended to require the renewal of the levy of an ad valorem tax in an amount of
three tenths of one percent of the assessed value (3 mills) for a period of ten (10)
years from 2024 through 2033, on all real and personal property subject to taxation in
the city as a renewal of this millage for the purpose of providing funds for general
operating purposes? It is estimated that 3.0 mills would raise approximately
$1,781,000.00 when first levied in 2024.
