Overall it was a good meeting, at least until one of the board members had a discussion with me afterwards about my attitude.
They were going to present a resolution on the water rates and fees but will hold some discussion before they bring that back to a board meeting. I saw an article online about how & why Saginaw City will be increasing the water rates by 2% each year until 2022. You can read that article here - Saginaw plans water rate increases to pay for state-mandated lead pipe work
The presentation given during the public hearing on the Truth in Taxation was very well done and informative. No residents spoke for or against it so it was passed.
There was a presentation by Katharine Tessin from the Mid Michigan Waste Authority about the contracts for and the future of recycling. Another good presentation and informative.
The township manager Rose Licht has always given updates of information, events, etc... during the board member comments at the end of the meeting. They will now be listing that as a separate item on the agenda for the meetings. And as I have always said in the past, it is worth listening to her because of the information she shares. She covered everything from the Hoffmann Community Park canoe launch, construction projects, the future of the governmental center, to local community events.
Two good Facebook pages to keep updated on local community events are the
