Welcome
to
I apologize for getting this out late as we took a little time off. March was very busy. We had our Budget and Annual Meetings in which the budget and the salaries of elected officials were approved. During the regular meeting on the 19th, we approved the purchase of a new ambulance and fire truck pumper with expected delivery in 2026. We completed our 2023-2024 fiscal year on March 31, 2024. Overall, we were favorable to budget by $627,900. A big reason was the delay in receiving our new fire truck pumper which missed the December 2023 delivery date. All funds were favorable to the budget for the fiscal year. A quick snapshot of our preliminary March 2024 YTD financial results will be presented at the February Board meeting: YTD MARCH 2024 (Fiscal year 4/1/2023-3/31/2024)
Further details will be found in my monthly financial report to the Board at our next Board meeting. TOWNSHIP MEETINGS: The April Board meeting is Tuesday, April 16, 2024.

May is here and summer can’t be far off . . . .
This is coming out later than usual as it has been a very busy month so far. The board approved at the April Board meeting the 2023 road improvement plans and the key areas are as follows: Old Mission Estates gravel roads will now be paved sometime during the summer; the upper portion of Barnes road will be repaired and repaved; a section of Lore Rd will be fixed and repaved; and Stone Circle will be resurfaced with a limestone mixture that should allow that road to hold up better for the next few years.
As mentioned in my last letter, I had been approached by Central Lake Village to see if we would be interested in sharing the cost of an additional police officer. I had an additional discussion this past week. Based on input from the Central Lake Village attorney, the original idea was not going to meet the legal test necessary for our involvement. The attorney provided some alternatives which will be explored at out Board meeting on May 16th. They had received a grant to provide for an officer in the school but had not been successful with getting someone on a part-time basis. Since part of our Township is within the Central Lake School district, our Township has a vested interest in ensuring the students in the Central Lake School district are properly protected.
Here is the snapshot of the financial results in April is located below.
