Resolution 2025-29 spells out millage, tax distributions and fund-use rules
Summary
The adopted Resolution 2025-29 restates statutory budgeting authority, notes a Headlee-rolled-back millage rate of 5.2957 and allocates guidance for Convention Facility Tax and Health & Safety Fund revenues under state law.
Resolution 2025-29, adopted by the Board on Nov. 19, 2025, incorporates statutory findings and administrative policy directives. The resolution cites the Uniform Budgeting and Accounting Act (P.A. 621 of 1978) and records that the County Tax Allocation Board allocated 6.0 mills; the Board subsequently approved a Headlee roll-back rate of 5.2957 on June 18, 2025 to support the 2026 General Fund.
The resolution also directs that Convention Facility Tax revenues received under P.A. 106 and P.A. 107 of 1985 "shall not be used to reduce the County's 2024-2025 operating millage" and that 50% of any such revenue not used to reduce the operating rate be transmitted to the Northern Michigan Regional Entity, with the remainder deposited to the General Fund. It further references the Health and Safety Fund Act (P.A. 264 of 1987) including the specified appropriations fractions (12/17 and 5/17) for public-health and court/law-enforcement functions described in the resolution.
