Approximately 95% of the funding for these police services comes from property taxes.
The community last approved a police funding measure in 2016, the township said.
Since that time, the township said the cost of maintaining police services has increased by nearly 27%.
Law enforcement personnel serve approximately 21,814 residents within the township.
The levy will appear on the ballot for Harrison Township voters on May 5, 2026.
