2025 Millage Increase
The recent increase in the millage rate from 0.8 to 1.55 was a necessary step to ensure the continued maintenance and improvement of essential community services. Over the past few years, rising costs and increasing demands have put significant pressure on the township’s budget. The need to sustain public safety, maintain and upgrade infrastructure, and support community spaces continues to be a challenge. Furthermore, the township is also committed to meeting the financial obligations related to the bond payment for the
open space purchased in 2013, which is a key part of the Township's long-term vision for community development.
The 1.55 millage rate is divided, with 0.3 going to support the library and 1.25 allocated to the township's general fund. This allocation will help address these growing needs and ensure that our township remains a safe, vibrant, and well-maintained place to live. Township leadership is actively exploring opportunities for savings and alternative sources of funding. To stay informed and provide input, residents are encouraged to attend future budget workshops and Township public meetings, where decisions are made in collaboration with the community.
