MDPS Town Hall Meeting on Headlee Renewal
We are pleased to invite you to a town hall meeting to discuss the upcoming Headlee Renewal. Your participation is crucial as we consider this important matter for our community.
Date: Monday, July 29, 2024
Time: 6:00pm
Location: Wilkinson Middle School
VOTE ON THE HEADLEE RENEWAL
The Headlee Override proposal works by allowing the district to restore its property tax rate to the level originally approved by voters before it was reduced by the Headlee Amendment. This ensures the district can maintain stable funding for essential operations. The proposal is on the ballot because the Headlee Amendment caps property tax increases, often leading to reduced school funding over time. The State of Michigan expects districts to maintain 18 mills, and all Michigan public schools seek renewals for the override. By voting on the override, the community can decide to reinstate the original tax rate to support local schools and prevent further financial shortfalls.
