Jack Mariano All right. So um So again that we've got to do that. For an example, everything we've got here playing with the roads, MSCU is assuming a level millage rate, right? No change in that millage rate. But part of what Um the discussion we need to have with the board is do we want to maintain millage rates? Do we want to adjust millage rates? Do do we want to shift them? And so that's part of the conversation that we need to have today so that way when we come back in July we're able to move in um in the direction you all would like us to move. So for some historical context, when we look at our general fund millage um Yeah. We have where where that sat over the last couple of years. We've got our fire MSTU and where that um millage rate Um where those millage rates have set our roads rehabilitation MSTU. Again, FY twenty five was the first year that we had this MSTU. And then
Jack Mariano so Commissioner Yeager. This this one here we're taking the the millage back down from the operating We're adding into the fire rescue. The bottom line number the people are going to pay is the same. You okay with that?
Jack Mariano Mr. Mary, I want to back up the administrator too. I mean our our firefighters, EMS teams, they've done a phenomenal job for many, many years. Um Chief, you've done a great job leading everybody every step of the way. We are s striving for Premier every step of the way. Respect the job you guys do, but with the budget we're working on, we might get not get it all this year, but hopefully by next year we'll we'll finish it off.
Jack Mariano the don't hold too firm on the actual millage rates because that's assuming June first taxable assessed value, the millage rate would um modulate a little bit, but it's really that program revenue where we need to have the discussion because we'll get July 1 numbers and then depending on what revenue you'd like to see generated would tell us what would that millage rate need to be. So don't pay too much attention to millage rate at this point. But it really is so that that program revenue piece. And so Would we like to see 8.2 million generated, some other number? Do we want operations in there? Maybe not with capital maintenance yet. Maybe that's something we build out over the years if we were to establish an MSDU and let growth get us there. Or would we want to look at the the whole picture in year one with ops? And the maintenance money.
