Pending Senate approval, two local townships may see an increase in state revenue sharing dollars.
Atlas Township is one of three townships in Genesee County which may see a 3.9 percent increase, said Rep. Dave Robertson, R-Grand Blanc Twp., in a media statement released June 15.
Groveland Township is one of three Oakland County townships slated for a 1.5 to 3.9 percent increase in revenue sharing if the bill is approved, said Rep. Jim Marleau, R-Lake Orion, in a similar statement.
Both Robertson and Marleau voted to approve the bill, which is touted as a budget plan which will ‘not raise taxes, increases funding for K-12 education, and protects essential services for seniors, children, and those with disabilities.?
