The question, as printed on the ballot

This proposal will permit the intermediate school district to continue to levy special education millage previously approved by the electors. Shall the currently authorized millage rate limitation of 1.2872 mills ($1.2872 on each $1,000 of taxable valuation) on the amount of taxes which may be assessed against all property in Alpena-Montmorency-Alcona Educational Service District, Michigan, to provide funds for the education of students with a disability, be renewed for a period of 10 years, 2027 to 2036, inclusive; the estimate of the revenue the intermediate school district will collect if the millage is approved and levied in 2027 is approximately $3,536,404 from local property taxes authorized herein (this is a renewal of millage that will expire with the 2026 tax levy)?

A “Yes” vote means

A yes vote renews a 1.2872-mill property tax for 10 years (2027–2036) to fund the education of students with disabilities in the Alpena-Montmorency-Alcona ESD.

A “No” vote means

A no vote rejects the renewal; the current millage expires with the 2026 levy.
