4'" mills. The serial levy ha
been 7.9 mills, so we should get
a saving of a few mills by elim
mating that for the next two
years. Then we think the county
millage will be reduced enough
that the cost in overall taxes
should not increase at the end
of that two year period.
Personally. I cannot see how
old-time residents with families
can hope to use the present fa
cilities forever.
