In May 2009, voters passed the CARES Recreation Millage for 0.5 mills for 10 years. The millage will provide annual funding for five specific programs and also create a Discretionary Fund which may be allocated annually through a grant process to meet additional recreation needs.

The five specific programs funded annually through CARES are:

• Saline Area Senior Citizen Center
• Saline Area School Pool
• Saline Area School Theater Management
• Saline Community Education Recreation and Enrichment Programs

The Discretionary Funds are expected to be more than $167,000 each year and may be granted to any worthwhile projects which enhance the quality of life in the Saline Community through new or expanded programs and/or facilities for the Cultural Arts, Recreation, Enrichment, and Senior Citizens.
