Sinking Fund Millage Proposal


On November 4, 2025, voters in the Dowagiac Union Schools district will be presented with a Sinking Fund Millage Proposal set at 0.5 mill. For further information, please see the informational flyer. Should you have any questions, feel free to reach out to Superintendent Greg Blomgren at 269-782-4400 or via email at gblomgren@dowagiacschools.org.
Key points to know and be aware of:
-.5 mills of debt on the middle school is expiring (paid off), so the .5 mills for a new sinking fund will keep tax rates the same from this year to next. No net increase.
-The sinking fund will generate between 400K-600k per year for sustainability and maintaining our current school district.
-Current priorities in the district include; middle school roof, transportation building repairs and updates, buses, repairs to the tennis courts.
