I will now provide a summary of the Fire Rescue Municipal Service Taxing Unit Budget stating the Millage Rate, the percentage change from the rollback rate, and the reasons for the change. The Fire Rescue MSTU Fund has a recommended tax levy of 2.2674 ML. This represents a 9.99% increase from the rollback rate of 2.0614. Taxable values for this MSTU increase 6.8% per cent. The increase in property values results in an additional sixteen point eight million in revenue. The increased

millage and associated additional revenue will be used to fund rescue operations previously funded by the general fund. I would ask the Board to accept public comment and then vote on the Fire Rescue MSTU Millagery. The minimum vote for this final hearing is four votes.
