BEHIND THE NUMBERS

How did the district calculate the proposed increase of .77 mill?

1. In 2024, the district levied 2.7 mills on its current millage.

2. If approved by voters on Nov. 5, .14 mill would transfer to the proposed millage increase of .77 mill.

  • (2.7 mills - .14 mill = 2.56 mills) - existing
  • (.14 mill + .77 mill = .91 mill) - new

3. The total millage levied in 2025 would become 3.47 mills.

  • (2.56 mills + .91 mill = 3.47 mills)

4. This is a net increase of .77 mill.

  • (3.47 mills - .77 mill = 2.7 mills)
