Leelanau Township residents will head to the polls next month to vote on two millages pertaining to the fire/emergency medical services (EMS) fund, as well as the general fund.
The renewal of extra voted millage for Leelanau Township’s fire/EMS fund will be renewed at 3.10 mills ($3.10 per $1,000 of taxable value) to be levied for a period of four years, 2024 through 2027 inclusive, for the purpose of equipping, operating and maintaining fire protection and emergency medical services including life support services. In the first year of the levy, it would raise an estimated $1,835,794.
Mike McMillan, Leelanau Township supervisor, said the renewal is a reduction from the previously voted millage of 3.55 mills, and will give taxpayers relief over the next four years.
