Millage & Funding Facts
Millage (.25 mill) from North Berrien communities providesapproximately $150,000 per year to operate the museum.
The cost to taxpayers on a home with a taxable value of$50,000 is $12.50 per year, or just $1 a month. NBHS is
asking for a renewal of this existing millage .
NBHS has leveraged our millage funding to earn more than
$15,000 in Grants for additional support of high-qualityexhibits, public programs, and more.
