Fowlerville Community Schools request for renewal of non-homestead operational millage on August 4th ballot
Fowlerville Community Schools (FCS) will have a non-homestead operational millage renewal proposal on the Tuesday, August 4th Michigan Primary ballot. This is a renewal of an existing millage, not a new tax, and would continue funding for the district's day-to-day operations for four years (2027–2030).
Under Michigan law, this millage applies only to non-homestead properties, such as commercial businesses, rental properties, and second homes. It does not apply to primary residences.
If approved, the renewal would continue generating approximately $3.78 million annually to help fund operating expenses, including employee salaries, instructional materials, transportation, utilities, and building maintenance. If the renewal is not approved, the district would lose this local funding, as the State of Michigan does not replace it.
Additional information is available on the district website: fowlervilleschools.org/district/non-homestead-operational-millage/
Furthermore, FCS Superintendent Matt Stuard, as well as Assistant Superintendent of Academics Adva Ringle, will host two coffee-hour chats to answer questions related to the millage and provide district updates. These will take place on Monday, July 13 from 8:30-9:30 am and Wednesday, July 15 from 6:00-7:00 pm at the Fowlerville Biggby Coffee located at 8097 Country Corner Drive.
