In plain language
A VoterDecoder summary of the official measure text.
Cheshire Township voters are asked to renew and increase a previously voted millage for ambulance services. It was authorized in November 2018 at 0.6 mills. The wording says it was reduced to 0.5366 mills ($0.5366 per $1,000 of taxable value) by required rollbacks. The proposal would set the millage at not more than 0.6 mills ($0.60 per $1,000) for six years, 2026 through 2031 inclusive. The money would operate ambulance services and purchase vehicles and equipment for those services. The estimated first-year revenue is $61,617.12. A YES vote approves the renewal; a NO vote means it is not renewed.
