This fall, MCC will be implementing a public policy program to share information on the college’s 1.15 mill tax levy that is set to lapse in 2025. The MCC Board of Trustees is considering placing the levy renewal proposal on a ballot in 2024.
This levy currently provides $3.6 million annually toward MCC’s operating budget, or about 19% of our total budget. Funds generated by the mill levy play a critical role in keeping the college affordable and accessible, and in allowing MCC to develop and support key programs that lead to jobs in high-demand, high-wage fields. It helps fund faculty and staff, facility maintenance, technology and other critical operating needs.
The MCC Board of Trustees would greatly
appreciate your input on the proposed mill levy renewal. A final decision to pursue this measure will not
be made until November 2023, providing time for additional public input.
Your participation in one of the upcoming community outreach meetings is greatly appreciated:
- Saturday, Sept. 23, 9 to 10 a.m., Room G129, Stanley and Blanche Ash Technology and
Learning Center on MCC’s Greenville Campus at 1325 Yellow Jacket Drive. - Monday, Oct. 2, 5 to 6 p.m., Room D305, Beatrice E. Doser Building on MCC’s
Sidney Campus at 2800 College Drive. - Thursday, Oct. 5, 6 to 7 p.m., Room G129, Stanley and Blanche Ash Technology and
Learning Center on MCC’s Greenville Campus at 1325 Yellow Jacket Drive.
You do not need to RSVP for these meetings. Everyone is welcome to attend.
We also would appreciate your participation in our community opinion survey being mailed to District
residents in October.
