Raise Kidder ambulance and rescue squad millage from 1.3 to 2 mills

The question asks Kidder Township voters whether to raise the ambulance and rescue squad tax millage from 1.3 mills to 2 mills under Section 68205(a)(8) of the Second Class Township Code. The Board of Supervisors requested it for the Lake Harmony Rescue Squad. The official statement says the squad was recently certified to operate at a more advanced level to reduce the need for Advanced Life Support (ALS) services. The money would go to the squad to support that advancement and rising ambulance operating costs. A YES vote approves the increase, and a NO vote keeps the rate at 1.3 mills.

The Kidder Township Board of Supervisors is hereby requesting an increase in millage on behalf of the Lake Harmony Rescue Squad. Recently the organization has been certified to operate on a more advanced level to reduce the need for Advanced Life Support (ALS) services to be required. The increase in millage would go directly to the Rescue Squad to support the advancement as well as the rising costs associated with regular operation of the ambulance service.
