The following are the results from both the email polling (participants are from both East Bay & Acme Twps) last week, and the polling.
First of all, thank all of you for volunteering on a beautiful Saturday morning and afternoon and a special thanks to Rick Cooper for arranging the schedules and tables for our polling, and to Kay for coordinating with both Roy's and Ace Hardware. I know you must be wondering how the results turned out, so here they are:
We polled a total of 179 residents with 71% indicating they are in favor of township millages, 27% not in favor, and 2% undecided. More importantly, broken down between Acme & East Bay Township the results are as follows:
Acme: 53 residents polled - 75% are in favor of a millage, 21% are not, and 4% were undecided.
East Bay: 126 polled - 68% in favor of a millage, 30% are not, and 2% are undecided.
As for the email poll to both East Bay & Acme residents in the Holiday Hills area: 122 participated in the poll with 87% in favor of coordinated township millages and 13% not in favor.
