Oakland County Parks & Recreation
Millage RENEWAL August 3, 2010
Oakland County Parks and Recreation reminds you to vote in the August 3, 2010 election.
- The proposal is a renewal, not an increase. Most homeowners will contribute approximately $21 per year. Voters have passed the renewal each time since the park system was created in 1966.
- Past millage funding has made possible the acquisition of several new parks throughout the county, increased campsites at Addison Oaks and Groveland Oaks, two dog parks, golf course improvements and much more.
- Plans for the future include expansion of trails, increased initiatives to protect wildlife and water resources, park system repairs and upgrades, and electronic reservation/registration systems.
- For more information, visit destinationoakland.com or call 1-888-OCPARKS.
- Vote August 3, 2010.
