RE: 2009 Huron-Clinton Metropolitan Authority Tax Levy
As is our usual custom at this time of the year, we are advising of the ad
valorem tax for the Huron-Clinton Metropolitan Authority. The levying of these
taxes is required by State of Michigan Act 147 of the Public Acts of 1939 Section
7. This levy has been computed in accordance with the provisions of Act 35 of the
Public Acts of 1979 (Headlee Amendment) which amended Section 211.34 (d) of the
Compiled Laws of 1970. We are providing your County with Form L-4029 the Millage
Tax Rate Request Report for the County Board of Commissioners.
The Authority is a five-county (multi-District) taxing jurisdiction
authorized to levy our millage on the December tax bills. Our Millage Reduction
Factor (MRF) is calculated over the entire five counties. For the 2009 levy the
Authority is subject to a Millage Reduction Fraction of 1.0000. This rate is then
applied to our 2008 permanently reduced maximum millage of .2146 mills, yielding a
2009 permanently reduced millage rate of .2146. H.C.M.A. Board of Commissioners
certified the levy of this tax rate on August 13, 2009..
Accordingly, we are requesting you to levy .2146 mills for Metropark
development and operations with the December 2009 tax bills. For your information,
this will produce a levy of $13,389,789.36 based on a final 2009 Oakland Taxable
Value of $62,394,172,225.
If there are any communities in your county that prepare their own tax bills,
we kindly request that a copy of this L-4029 form is forwarded to them so they can
include the H.C.M.A. levy on their December l st tax bills. If you are unable to
forward the L-4029 form, please advise us so we can contact those communities
directly.
We kindly ask that this matter be given the proper consideration at your
County Board of Commissioners Apportionment meeting in October. Thanking you in
advance for your cooperation. Should there be any questions or a need for
additional information, please contact the undersigned.
Sincerely,
David L. Wahl, Controller
