ST. CLAIR SHORES — On Nov. 4, St. Clair Shores voters will be asked to approve or reject a police and fire millage put on the ballot by a majority vote of the City Council earlier in the year.

According to the ballot language on file with the Macomb County clerk’s office, the public is being asked to renew the original 4.4192 mils and an added 0.50 mils for a total levy of 4.9192 mils. The document stated this will raise $10,950,730 in the first year for use by the St. Clair Shores Police Department and the St. Clair Shores Fire Department.

At their meeting on July 21, council members and the mayor were asked to approve one of three options for the millage. The other two options were to keep the millage rate the same at 4.4192 mils or to raise it back to 5 mils, generating around $11,130
