Today on WDET 101.9FM:

"Salvador Salort-Pons, director of the Detroit Institute of Arts, says a millage extension would help to maintain the museum’s existing robust community partnerships, including their extensive student and senior programming. 'This is not a new tax. This is not an increase on the current millage. This is just to keep things the way they are,' says Salort-Pons.

DIA director, Salvator Salort-Pons, says the renewal would help keep the museum as an internationally-known cultural institution.

“On an average school day, about 500 kids come through the DIA. This group came on a bus paid for with funds raised from the DIA millage, a .2 mill tri-county property tax. Under the millage, a family in Wayne, Oakland or Macomb county with a home worth $100,000 would typically pay $10 a year for the millage. The current millage expires in 2022.”

The Detroit Institute of Arts millage is up for a renewal vote on March 10th — after the museum said it wouldn't need an extension. DIA patrons speak to WDET's Laura Herberg on the potential renewal.
