AI Summary

  • Removes the requirement that school districts levy "the number of mills levied in 1993 for school operating purposes" as a limiting factor, allowing districts to levy up to 18 mills for school operating purposes without being constrained by 1993 historical levels.

  • Simplifies the definition of "combined state and local revenue per membership pupil" to mean the school district's combined state and local revenue divided by membership excluding special education pupils, replacing the previous reference to section 20 of the state school aid act.

  • Removes the certification requirement for the "number of mills the school district may levy beginning in 1994 under section 1211" from the Department of Treasury's June 20, 1994 certification duties.

  • Reorganizes and renumbers the definitions section (subsection 10) by converting lettered definitions (a through k) to a new format (a through l), including a new definition of "combined state and local revenue" as the aggregate of state school aid and local school operating revenue.

  • Maintains existing exemptions for principal residences, qualified agricultural property, qualified forest property, supportive housing property, public school academy property, and industrial personal property from millage levies.
