Tax Bill Calculation
The Taxable Value divided by 1000 multiplied by the millage rate.
It is important for property owners that own and occupy their home to be sure they are claiming a 100% Principal Residence Exemption (PRE). This savings is on the tax bill where the school taxes are collected. School districts are as follows:
- Romeo – 100% Summer
- Armada – 50% Summer & 50% Winter
- Almont – 100% Winter
