2005 House Bill 4570 ↩

Senate Roll Call 93: Passed

To move back to May 31 from April 30 the deadline for an election authorizing a new millage rate to be levied in the same year, including a "Headlee override" vote. Millages (or Headlee overrides) approved after May 31 would not go into effect until the following year. The Headlee Amendment requires millage rates to be rolled back in order to prevent aggregate property tax collections in a local unit of government from rising more than inflation due to property value increases, unless voters approve not rolling back the millage rate (a “Headlee override”). A number of school districts have Headlee override votes scheduled for May 3, 2005.
