Local Proposal Results

I.  New Additional Millage Proposal (Public Transportation Millage) 

This proposal requests authorization for the levy of a new additional millage for the purpose of supporting the provision of public transportation services in the city of Owosso.  This millage would be disbursed to the Shiawassee Area Transportation Agency and used to defray the expenses of existing transportation services and expansion of those services in the future.  If authorized by the voters, it is estimated that the levy of the entire millage would generate $56,000 the first year.  Shall a new additional millage for public transportation services be levied in an amount not to exceed .225 mill ($.225 per $1,000 of taxable valuation) annually for a period of two years? 

II.  Statement of Purpose 

This Amendment would entirely ban open outside burning in the City of Owosso.  CHARTER AMENDMENT QUESTION  Shall the City of Owosso Charter be amended to add Section 5.6(d) to entirely ban open outside burning?
