In plain language
A VoterDecoder summary of the official measure text.
Trowbridge Township voters are asked to renew and increase a road millage. The previously voted increase of 2.5 mills ($2.50 per $1,000 of taxable value) has been reduced to 2.3916 mills by required millage rollbacks. The rate would return to the originally voted 2.5 mills, levied for five years, 2027 through 2031 inclusive, for road construction and improvements within the Township. The wording estimates the first year would raise $305,129.58. A YES vote approves both the renewal and the increase; a NO vote rejects the whole question, including the renewal.
