Renewal of Historic District Commission Operating Millage:
Shall the Charter Township of Oakland be authorized to renew a levy of up to .1096 for a period of ten (10) years, starting with the December 2022 levy, for the purpose of continuing to fund historic preservation, education, restoration, acquisition, and maintenance within the Charter Township of Oakland? As part of this purpose, this millage includes funding for the development and maintenance of the Cranberry Lake Farm Historic District, a site listed as a Community Historic Center on the National Register of Historic Places.
Approval of this proposal would renew the previously authorized tax limitation increase of approximately .11 cents per $1,000 of taxable value on all taxable property in the township, or $10.96 per year on a home with a taxable value of $100,000. Revenue from the levy renewal shall be disbursed to the Charter Township of Oakland. Based upon the projected 2022 Township wide taxable value, it is estimated that this proposal would result authorization to collect up to $176,888.10 of revenue in the first year (2022) if this millage renewal is authorized and levied.
Also, approve and authorize the Township Clerk to certify and file the same.
