Summary
The Beaver Island Property Owners’ Association published a February 1998 comparison of the two townships’ 1997 millage decisions, taxable assessed values, and projected revenues. It encouraged residents to participate in the upcoming independent budget meetings and raised a question about whether the township boundary should be adjusted to equalize taxable assessed values.
Evidence limits
The figures are a published association analysis, not an audited tax ledger, adopted budget, or legal boundary proceeding.
