8/1/14 - Various millage renewals are being proposed in local communities Tuesday for roads, schools, fire protection and mosquito control. In Howell Township, a road millage renewal is being proposed for continued improvements and maintenance. The .9496-mill, four-year tax would generate an estimated $282,706 the first year if approved. Cohoctah Township is also proposing a road millage renewal for dust control, maintenance and improvements. The 1.5-mill tax would be levied for four years and raise an estimated $151,500 the first year. The Putnam Township Fire Department has a millage renewal on the ballot that would sustain operations for the next two years, with the 1.1923 mills generating approximately $371,000 for operations and equipment. In the Fowlerville area, voters will see an operating millage renewal from Fowlerville Community Schools as well as a four-year millage renewal to help fund the Villageâs mosquito control program. Other ballot proposals highlighted earlier this week by WHMI include police and fire millage renewals in Green Oak Township, as well operating millage requests from the Hamburg and Pinckney libraries. Meanwhile, all local clerkâs offices will be open this Saturday for absentee voter ballot services ahead of Tuesdayâs primary election.
While opening hours will vary, all offices across Livingston County will be open until 2pm Saturday to receive absent voter ballot applications and for voters to return completed absent voter ballots.
