There was no doubt about it.

Niles voters were strongly in favor of supporting the renewal of a $3 million operating millage for Niles Community Schools.

On Tuesday, residents voted 1020 to 288 to extend the current 18 mill tax levy on non-homestead property for the next 10 years, according to unofficial results from Election Magic.

The millage will provide approximately $3 million for the school district each year.

The proposal drew favorable results in all nine precincts.

Support was especially strong in the Niles No. 4 precinct where it passed 157 to 43. Voters in precinct Niles 5 voted 140 to 40 in favor of the renewal.
