Welcome
to
Torch Lake Township
Nestled between Lake Michigan's Grand Traverse Bay and Torch Lake, Torch
Lake Township is a community of about 1,200 full time locals - coupled
with additional summer residents and vacationers.

The weather is starting to warm up . . . . . .
Sorry for the lateness of this note but March has been quite busy already. Rita and I took some time off and upon my return we had the Budget Meeting and Annual Meeting of the Electors on the 7th. There were issues with the Website at the end of the week which delayed my note. Those have been corrected.
February was a quiet month. Kathy has a new deputy clerk, Sheryll Wynkoop. We welcome her to the staff at the Township offices. Those of you who could not attend the Budget Meeting and Annual Meeting of the Electors can view the meeting on YouTube as we have not yet loaded it onto the website. The budget information can be found at the top of our website in the right-hand column. Any questions on the numbers, feel free to call me.
We were denied our grant request to the state for some critical work at the Day Park. We will submit another request at the next date they are offered.
The March Board meeting is Tuesday, March 21, 2023. The draft Agenda will be ready after 2 PM on March 16, 2023. The Board package and final Agenda will be available after 2 PM, Saturday, March 18, 2023.
Planning Commission will meet March 14, 2023, at 7 PM and the Zoning Board of Appeals will meet Wednesday March 15, 2023, at 6 PM. Please monitor the website for agenda items for each meeting.
