Dear Redford Township Community,
On August 2nd, 2022, Redford Township District Library will ask residents to approve 2 mills to fund the library for a period of 20 years. This millage is not a tax increase and is a slight decrease compared to the taxes you paid in 2021. This replaces a 1.4 mill operating millage and a .66 mill debt millage that was levied in 2021.
You have the opportunity to help decide the future of the library as we strive to inspire ideas, enrich lives, and create community.
To learn more about the millage, please visit our FAQ page.
