Vote Yes on Millage Proposal for Saginaw County Health Department
-
The proposal states, “For the purpose of reinforcing public health infrastructure and restoring capacity; to ensure adequate staffing, data analysis and reporting, critical technology needs, broader capacity to provide direct services, adequate facilities, resource readiness for emergencies, and continued communication with health partners, county leaders, and the public, shall the County of Saginaw increase in the limitation of the total amount of general ad-valorem taxes which may be imposed for all purposes upon all taxable real and personal property in Saginaw County, as authorized by Article 9, Section 6 of the Michigan Constitution of 1963, as amended, and levy up to .48 Mill ($0.48 per $1,000) of taxable valuation on such property as finally equalized during the years 2020 – 2029, both inclusive, which if approved and levied in its entirety is estimated to raise $2,435,478 in the first year?”
In short, the proposal increases the capacity of the Saginaw County Health Department which currently suffers from a lack of funding. The new funds granted under this proposal would go towards epidemiological research, enhancing the available health services the county can provide, and adequately respond to challenges faced from common diseases, including COVID-19 pandemic.
We recommend voting yes on this proposal.
