Ballot issues
Proposal 2026-1: Call a constitutional convention
Shall a convention of elected delegates be convened in 2027 to draft a general revision of the State Constitution for presentation to the state’s voters for their approval or rejection?
Proposal 2026-2: Campaign contributions by utilities and government contractors, and political ad disclosure (initiated law)
The proposal would: • Prohibit regulated electric and gas utilities, contractors with over $250,000 annually in government contracts, and people and organizations with substantial connections to these utilities/contractors from making direct or indirect campaign contributions to those who run for or hold offices that impact them. • Expand laws regulating spending on political communications, including those requiring disclosing donor information, to apply to communications clearly identifying candidates or ballot questions, even if they do not expressly advocate voting for/against them. • Expressly apply the law requiring disclosure of who paid for political communications to internet political communications. Should this proposal be adopted?
Hudsonville Public Schools: operating millage renewal
This proposal will allow the school district to continue to levy the statutory rate of not to exceed 18 mills on all property, except principal residence and other property exempted by law, required for the school district to receive its revenue per pupil foundation allowance. The remaining 1.6911 mills are only available to be levied to restore millage lost as a result of the reduction required by the Michigan Constitution of 1963 and will only be levied to the extent necessary to restore that reduction. Shall the currently authorized millage rate limitation on the amount of taxes which may be assessed against all property, except principal residence and other property exempted by law, in Hudsonville Public Schools, Ottawa and Allegan Counties, Michigan, be renewed by 19.6911 mills ($19.6911 on each $1,000 of taxable valuation) for a period of 5 years, 2028 to 2032, inclusive, to provide funds for operating purposes; the estimate of the revenue the school district will collect if the millage is approved and 18 mills are levied in 2028 is approximately $9,560,000 (this is a renewal of millage that will expire with the 2027 tax levy)?
Only part of Jamestown charter Township votes on this. Enter your address to know for sure.
Hudsonville Public Schools: sinking fund millage renewal
This proposal will allow the school district to continue to levy the building and site sinking fund millage that expires with the 2027 tax levy. Shall the currently authorized millage rate of .9709 mill ($0.9709 on each $1,000 of taxable valuation) which may be assessed against all property in Hudsonville Public Schools, Ottawa and Allegan Counties, Michigan, be renewed for a period of 5 years, 2028 to 2032, inclusive, to continue to provide for a sinking fund for the purchase of real estate for sites for, and the construction or repair of, school buildings, for school security improvements, for the acquisition or upgrading of technology and all other purposes authorized by law; the estimate of the revenue the school district will collect if the millage is approved and levied in 2028 is approximately $2,740,000 (this is a renewal of millage that will expire with the 2027 tax levy)?

Ottawa County: parks and open space millage increase
For 10 years beginning with the tax assessments in December of 2027 and ending with the assessments in December of 2036, shall the total taxable property rate limitation in Ottawa County under Section 6 of Article IX of the Michigan Constitution of 1963, be increased up to the amount of 0.20 mills (20 cents per thousand dollars of taxable value) as an increase to the renewed 0.33 mill authorization for the purpose of acquiring, improving, operating, maintaining, restoring, and protecting parks, open space, trails, greenways, water access sites, recreational facilities, and related conservation and educational activities in Ottawa County and if approved and levied in full, this millage will raise an estimated $3,763,230 in the first calendar year it is levied (2027).
Jamestown Township Proposal 1: road millage renewal and restoration
Shall the previously voted increase in the Charter Township of Jamestown tax rate limitation, currently 1.4362 mills ($1.4362 per $1,000 of taxable value), be renewed and levied in the years 2027-2030, both inclusive, and shall an additional 0.0638 mill ($0.0638 per $1,000 of taxable value) be approved and levied to restore previous millage reductions under the “Headlee Amendment” since this millage was last approved, resulting in the levy of 1.5000 mills ($1.50 per $1,000 of taxable value), subject to reduction as provided by law, on taxable property in the Township? The purpose of this levy is to provide funds for the improvement of secondary roads situated in Jamestown Charter Township. It is estimated that a levy of 1.5000 mills would provide revenue of $1,163,377 in the first calendar year, of which $49,482 would result from the additional 0.0638 mill. The revenue from this millage levy will be disbursed to the Township.
Jamestown Township Proposal 2: fire department millage (new)
Shall the limitation on general ad valorem taxation within the Charter Township of Jamestown be increased by 0.30 mill ($0.30 per $1,000 of taxable value) annually for a period of four years 2027-2030, both inclusive, subject to reduction as provided by law, on taxable property in the Township? The purpose of this levy is to provide additional funds for the operation of the Jamestown Charter Township Fire Department. It is estimated that a levy of 0.30 mill would provide revenue of $232,675 in the first calendar year. The revenue from this millage levy will be disbursed to the Township.
