Saginaw bus service tax renewal on August ballots
SAGINAW, MI — A Saginaw-based transit authority hopes to keep momentum moving forward with a request for a tax renewal on the Aug. 6 primary election ballot.
Saginaw residents in the city will weigh a 3.2-mill levy that’d span 2026-2030 and support Saginaw Transit Authority Regional Services operations, county election records show.
Voters green-lit the previous STARS millage, which expires next year, in March 2020. The proposal earned hearty support, with 5,153 voters favoring it compared to 2,080 people opposed to it.
STARS officials estimate the renewal will net $1.8 million in the first year.
