Vote “Yes” on the Senior Millage

Vote “Yes” on the Senior Millage on the Aug. 7 county wide ballot. The continuation of prevention services, as well as ongoing services are essential for an age friendly Leelanau. The last .275 millage in 2014 received overwhelming approval by the voters.  This year’s request for a two-year .320 millage would be an increase of only $4.50 a year for every $100,000 in property tax value. As a result of the growing and aging population, more seniors are requesting services. A “Yes” vote honors our elders and provides the necessities allowing seniors to maintain emotional, mental and physical health.
