Board Actions
Our insurance policy has been renewed and the annual report has been sent in to the state.
Snow Removal Contract
We have hired Komisarz & LaFontaine as our snow removal contractor this year. They were the low bidder.
Please note the following: The contractor does not plow unless 4 inches of snow has fallen and does not begin to plow until the snow stops falling. Snow will not be cleared the full width of street. Residents are responsible for marking their property lines to avoid sod damage near the street. Any other damage not reported within 24 hours is waived. The county is responsible for plowing and salting our streets but needs prompting from several residents.
If the roads are icy please call Oakland County at 248 858 4804.
Boat Launch
We sent a letter to the Township Board of Trustees and Township Supervisor Mike Kowall regarding enforcement of the new boat legislation. Kowall has informed us that our suggestions have been forwarded to the Township attorney.
