What happens if the Non-Homestead Operating Millage Renewal is not approved by voters? If the millage is not approved by voters, MERPS would not receive its full foundation allowance. This would equate to a loss of $1.7 million per year from the district's general fund. To learn more about the renewal, visit our website,

What properties does the Operating Millage affect?
The non-homestead Operating Millage is not levied on primary residences (the home in which a homeowner lives); it only applies to businesses, second homes, vacant land, and rental property. All school districts in Michigan must levy 18 mills on non-homestead property to receive their full share of State Aid (i.e., foundation allowance). For more information, visit our website at
