KALAMAZOO (WKZO-AM) — The Kalamazoo County Board of Commissioners will decide Tuesday whether to ask voters to renew their vital law enforcement millage in May.
Sheriff Rick Fuller said it has never failed before, and that’s a good thing. The courts, the prosecutor’s office, the jail, the juvenile home and several other law enforcement agencies have all come to rely on the money to keep their operations going.
They will be going for the same millage rate as last time.
They’re concerned the state’s new so-called “gag order” law on discussing funding requests 60 days before the election could handcuff their efforts to pass it.
The meeting starts at 7 p.m.
– John McNeill
