Township to Ask Voters for a Millage Renewal

Post Date:04/09/2026 2:27 PM

Northville Township will ask voters to consider a millage renewal on the August 4 ballot as the current millage expires at the end of this year.

If passed, the millage would provide continuity of current services, funding Township operations, including Police, Fire, EMS, Parks & Recreation, Senior Services and the Youth Network.

“The key point for residents to recognize is that this is a renewal of an existing millage, not a new tax,” said Township Supervisor Mark J. Abbo. “If approved, it would allow the Township to continue providing the same level of services our community relies on today.”

The Township would levy the millage for eight years at the 2025 rollback rate of 7.2054 mills, which equals approximately $7.21 per $1,000 of taxable value.

The Township would allocate revenue as follows:

  • Public Safety: 6.3447 mills
  • Parks, Senior and Youth Services: 0.7452 mills
  • General Operating: 0.1155 mills

Public safety services account for the largest portion of the proposed allocation. Community input has shown that residents want to maintain current service levels in these areas.

The Township follows a standard budgeting process that requires voter approval to continue millages when they expire and adjust due to state rollback requirements.

What is the tax impact of this millage proposal?
The proposed millage represents a renewal of an existing levy at the 2025 rollback rate of 7.2054 mills. The exact impact on individual properties will depend on taxable value.

Residents can estimate their individual tax impact by multiplying the proposed millage rate by their property’s taxable value.
