Miscellaneous Resolution 8808 February _1, 1979
BY: Mr. Robert W. Page
IN RE: Headlee Tax Limitation Amendment
TO THE OAKLAND COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
Mr. Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS the Oakland County Board of Commissioners is concerned about the
rapidly rising values of Residential Property; and
WHEREAS on December 22, 1978, the Headlee Tax Limitation Amendment took
effect; and
WHEREAS it appears that the intent of Section 31 is to limit the growth of
property taxes on existing property in a taxing unit to the rate of inflation; and
WHEREAS there appears to be confusion in the interpretation of the rollback
provisions by many; and
WHEREAS the Oakland County Board of Commissioners recognize the importance
of the Headlee Tax Limitation Amendment to all taxpayers both young and old; and
WHEREAS all input to the Michigan State Legislature concerning the millage
rollback procedures appears critical at this time to affect fair and accurate
interpretation;
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
be on record supporting the following:
1. That the Consumer Price Index factor for the 1979 Taxing Year means
that percentage difference between the average General Price Level in 1977
and the average General Price Level in 1978. This computes to 7.7%.
2. That any rollback necessary be affected from last year's spreading rate.
3. That this millage rollback may be restored in years where the adjustment
does not exceed the Consumer Price Index fact(5 ) the authorized rate or the local
charter limitation.
Mr. Chairperson, I move the adoption of the foregoing resolution.
