Sign up for Chalkbeat Detroit’s free newsletter to keep up with the city’s public school system and Michigan education policy.About $120 million in operating funds is at stake as Detroiters head to the polls today.On the ballot: Whether to allow the city school district to collect revenue it needs to operate.City residents have approved previous operating millages — which is what this tax is — for Detroit Public Schools, the entity that used to run schools but exists now solely to collect tax revenue to pay off old debt. A court decision earlier this year said DPS must cease collecting an operating millage, because the debt will be fully paid off in September. That meant the Detroit Public Schools Community District needed to ask voters to approve its own millage.DPSCD was created in 2016 as part of a legislative initiative to address mounting debt in DPS. The new district had a debt-free start, with the state covering its operating costs, while DPS stayed intact to pay off operating and capital debt.The $120 million that could be collected from the millage is a fraction of the district’s overall $1.1 billion budget. But it’s critical revenue that would fund everything from teacher salaries to classroom programs. DPSCD Superintendent Nikolai Vitti said during a community engagement meeting Monday that the estimated revenue generated by the tax levy would constitute $2,400 of the $10,300 per-pupil the district receives from the state. Among those casting a yes vote for the millage Tuesday morning was Shawn Womack, 54, a semi-truck driver.“I just think that every one of the schools needs help, so that was my main premise, you know, reasons for doing that.”The district must pass an operating millage by July 2027. If it fails today, the district has several other opportunities until then to get it approved. While anyone who is registered to vote can vote on the tax, it would only apply to commercial property, rental property, and vacation property. It wouldn’t affect primary homeowners.Need more information before you vote? We have answers to common questions from Detroit residents in this explainer. You can also read up on how canvassers were trying to get the word out on the millage and the court decision that necessitated the proposal.It’s not the only important item on today’s ballot.

(The Center Square) – Vance Boelter appeared in state court to face state charges for last year's attacks on Minnesota lawmakers that killed Minnesota House Speaker Emerita Melissa Hortman and her husband. This comes just 11 days after Boelter was sentenced to life in prison on federal charges. Boelter appeared Monday morning at Hennepin County Public Safety Center in his first appearance. He did not enter a plea. “While Mr. Boelter's case has been in federal court, we have been preparing to prosecute him in state court,” said Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty. “That time has arrived and Mr. Boelter will soon face accountability in a Hennepin County courtroom.” On July 23, Boelter was sentenced in federal court to two consecutive life terms. He also received an additional 40 years. That came just one month after Boelter changed his plea to guilty in connection with the June 2025 attacks. He also pleaded guilty to shooting state Sen. John Hoffman and his wife, Yvette, as well as the attempted shooting of their daughter, Hope Hoffman, in a targeted attack in which he posed as a police officer. Boelter has admitted to the crimes in federal court and pleaded guilty to two stalking charges, two murders through use of a firearm and two federal firearm-shooting offenses. Under the June agreement though, federal prosecutors took the possibility of the death penalty off the table. For the state charges, Boelter faces two counts of first-degree premeditated murder, four counts of attempted first-degree murder, felony cruelty to an animal, and impersonating a police officer. Minnesota does not allow the death penalty. The next hearing in the case is scheduled for Sept. 2.
