February 23, 2024 7:49AM EST
Isabella County voters will decide on a proposal increase to the county’s annual operating millage Tuesday.
The proposal would see a 2.5 mill increase for the next 6 years. According to officials, the county was already facing financial troubles before the discovery of asbestos in the County Administration building, which remains closed. The rehabilitation of the building has exacerbated those financial woes, according to officials. The millage increase would raise an estimated $6.1 million in its first year of levy.
