Precinct 5

Shall a convention of elected delegates be convened in 2027 to draft a general revision of the State Constitution for presentation to the state’s voters for their approval or rejection?

The proposal would: • Prohibit regulated electric and gas utilities, contractors with over $250,000 annually in government contracts, and people and organizations with substantial connections to these utilities/contractors from making direct or indirect campaign contributions to those who run for or hold offices that impact them. • Expand laws regulating spending on political communications, including those requiring disclosing donor information, to apply to communications clearly identifying candidates or ballot questions, even if they do not expressly advocate voting for/against them. • Expressly apply the law requiring disclosure of who paid for political communications to internet political communications. Should this proposal be adopted?

This is a renewal of the formerly named Genesee County Animal Control Shelter Millage that expires after the 2027 levy. The estimated revenue that will be collected during the first year this millage is authorized and levied is $2,710,105. In Genesee County, there are local authorities that capture and use for authorized purposes tax increment revenues from property taxes levied by the County. Such captured revenue would include a portion of the proposed millage levy. The total amount of captured tax increment revenues from the proposed millage levy in the first calendar year of the levy is estimated to be $102,335. The following such local authorities presently are expected to capture and receive disbursement of a portion of the County’s property tax levy: City of Clio Corridor Improvement Authority (“CIA”), Downtown Development Authority (“DDA”), and Neighborhood Improvement Authority (“NIA”); City of Davison DDA and Local Development Finance Authority (“LDFA”); City of Fenton DDA and LDFA; City of Grand Blanc DDA; City of Linden DDA; City of Montrose DDA; City of Swartz Creek DDA; Genesee County Brownfield Redevelopment Authority and Land Bank Authority; Davison Township DDA; Flint Township DDA, Beecher Road CIA, and Bristol Road CIA; Grand Blanc Township DDA; Mt. Morris Township Business Development Authority (“BDA”); Mundy Township Hill Road CIA; Vienna Township BDA; Village of Lennon DDA; Village of Otisville DDA; and Village of Otter Lake DDA. Other such local authorities could be created in the future.

Shall the previously voter approved increases in the limitation on the amount of taxes that may be levied by Charles Stewart Mott Community College, Genesee County, Michigan, against all property in the community college district of 0.6410 mill, which has been reduced to 0.6152 mill by operation of the Headlee Amendment, be renewed at the current mill ($0.6152 per $1,000 of taxable value of real and tangible personal property) and levied for 10 years, 2028 to 2037, inclusive, to provide funds for community college purposes? If the 0.6152 mill renewal is approved, it is estimated that the College will collect approximately $8.9 million of revenue in the first calendar year it is levied. The proposed millage is a renewal of a previously authorized millage.
