DETAILS:
The Millage Continuation proposition continues the same funding approach voters have approved since 1986 and is designed to provide long-term stability for the Library system. The proposed rate is 9.5 mills, which is lower than the previous rates approved in 1995, 2005, and 2015. The plan keeps the Library’s funding dedicated solely to the Library, supporting all library services and operations, and restoring the Pay-As-You-Go Capital Improvements Plan. The election is scheduled for Saturday, June 27, with early voting beginning Saturday, June 13.
