School Millage Vote Divides Oakland County | Detroit News
Description
Oakland County voters are split on a controversial school millage proposal that could add $781 per student to funding—but also hit winter tax bills starting December with a six-year term. Supporters like Kate Larive argue it’s vital to offset state budget cuts and keep schools strong, while opponents like Janet Watson demand transparency, fearing rising property taxes and unclear spending. School leaders say the money would fund essentials like intervention, transportation, and extracurriculars. As the primary nears, voters must choose between investing in education or resisting new taxes—no easy call.
