Inside millage is a local property-tax revenue source used for city services, construction projects, and debt payments. Council said restricting it could make city revenue less predictable, reduce financial flexibility, and increase borrowing costs for taxpayers. Council also adopted the city’s 2026 tax budget and authorized its attorney to join a court brief concerning taxpayer standing.
