Van Buren Intermediate School District puts special education millage renewal on ballot

VAN BUREN COUNTY, MI -- The Van Buren Intermediate School District will ask voters to renew the district’s special education millage in the Aug. 6 election.

The district has an ongoing special education millage rate at 3.2921. In 2020, voters passed a five-year, roughly 0.9-mill increase to the rate. Now the district is asking voters to renew that increase.

The current proposal is to renew a millage rate of 0.8955 mills. The millage equates to $0.8955 on each $1,000 of taxable valuation and will be applied to all taxable property in the school district.

In other words, a $200,000 home with a $100,000 taxable value would be taxed $89.55 annually for this, if approved.
