3. Headlee Override Election
Mark discussed the recently released budget from the Governor. The budget is the first step in the budget process for the State of Michigan. The House and Senate will be releasing their budget shortly and that is when Fruitport will determine the assumptions to use for the 2021 fiscal year.
