Thank you, to everyone that got out and Voted on November 5th.

We greatly respect the outcome of the vote which was to not support an additional property tax in the amount of 2 mills for Staffing.

Our township is facing troublng times, trying to operate as a volunteer department.

We do not have a budget that supports paid staffing, so we encourage any and all residents, that want to help provide emergency services to our community, to give us a call or stop by the fire station and pick up an application to become a member of a rewarding community service team.
