TOTAL CAPITAL AMOUNT TO BE ASSESSED

1/9/2024

 
​In December, FLTF shared an estimated capital assessment range. After refining these numbers and considering the timing and risk associated with permitting and financing, the total capital amount to be assessed for financing is $217,700,000. This number includes the costs for the total project, financing and contingency, minus reductions including State of Michigan and federal grants. This is the total amount to be financed that will be presented at the January 15 public hearing for approval. Property owners are encouraged to revisit the assessment map on the FLTF website later today or this weekend to see their estimated capital assessment amount that is no longer presented as a range. The map will be updated by the end of today (Jan. 5).
