OUR TOWNSHIP NEEDS YOUR HELP
Our township’s Planning Commission and Heritage Preservation Commission each have vacant seats. The good citizens who serve on these commissions (as well as our Parks Commission, which has enough members for now) help improve the quality of life in our beautiful township in various ways. We’d love to have you join us in thoughtful public service! Questions? Check out the information about each commission on this website, or you can contact Planning Commission Chair Bill Bruce at rwmbruce@icloud.com or Heritage Preservation Commission chair Jeff Bolin at jeffbolin@mac.com with questions. Thanks, friends! — Pamela Miller, township clerk, florencetwpmn@gmail.com
