[Michlib-l] Clarkston Independence District Library - Millage results!

[Michelle Moore]

CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL!  So happy to hear of millages passing :)  Julie at Clarkston<mailto:Julie at Clarkston> - so glad the transition is working out for your move to a District Library - I miss the great crew there :)
Sorry to hear your news Bryan at Oxford<mailto:Bryan at Oxford> - Missaukee DL could use a Headlee override someday too - we're at .25 which is down to .22 and these taxes are literally half my budget!  I would love to get the additional funds back.

Happy Wednesday!  Michelle :)

The results of the request for 1.25 mills for 8 years by the Clarkston Independence District Library are as follows:

Yes: 5494 (68.18%)
No: 2564  (31.82)

Not only does this millage provide our library with stable funding for the next 8 years, it also completes the final step in re-establishing this library as a District Library, thus releasing our library from being trapped under a law that was repealed in 1976.

This has been quite a journey for us. I am grateful to our Library Board, Friends, Staff and community for seeing this through, as well as to the library community who is always available with wisdom and support.

Thank you everyone!

Julie
