Special Meeting Notice

The Washtenaw County Water Resources Commissioner’s Office and community partners will be sponsoring three Environmental Clean-Up Days for Washtenaw County residents this year. The Clean-Up Days will take place:

• Saturday, June 11, 2016, from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. at the Northfield Township Hall, located at 8350 Main Street in Whitmore Lake. A flyer is attached to assist in promoting this event.

• Saturday, October 1, 2016, from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. at the Saline Department of Public Works, located at 1234 Tefft Court in Saline.

• Saturday, October 15, 2016, from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. at Eastern Michigan University, in the parking lot across the street from Rynearson Stadium, located at 799 N. Hewitt in Ypsilanti.

These events provide an opportunity for residents to dispose of many unwanted household items in a safe and sustainable manner. Numerous household materials can be brought to these events, including:

• Traditional recyclable materials (plastics, glass, aluminum, cardboard, paper)

• Scrap metal

• Appliances (washers, dryers, air conditioners, refrigerators, etc.)

• Household hazardous materials (cleaning supplies, motor oil, pesticides, mercury, paint, etc.)

• Tires

• Electronic equipment (computers, televisions, toasters, etc.)

• Sharps (diabetic needles, etc.)

The events are free, but there is a suggested $10 donation per car to help decrease disposal costs and to help maintain this community collection. Residents may bring up to four tires for free; a $5 donation is suggested for each additional tire. Residents can also bring one television, appliance or computer, but a $10 donation is suggested for each additional item.

This is a service for Washtenaw County residents only, funded and coordinated by the Washtenaw County Solid Waste Division of the Water Resources Commissioner’s Office, Washtenaw County Public Health, Northfield Township, Superior Township, the City of Saline, the City of Ann Arbor and Eastern Michigan University. All Washtenaw County residents are welcome and encouraged to attend. This collection is intended for residential use only – please, no businesses.

Notice of public meeting for comments on the draft Environmental Impact statement for the proposed ET Rover pipeline. Please see attached.

The Planning and Zoning Department has begun an extensive review of old files.

We have discovered many zoning permits that the applicants never contacted the Township for inspections, which are necessary in order to issue a final certificate of zoning compliance.  We will be proactively conducting site inspections to determine if work has been completed and document the improvements.  If work has not begun and the zoning permit has expired, letters will be sent to the property owners, letting them know of the expiration.

We will also be revisiting properties that have had documented violations of the Zoning Ordinance or the Anti-Blight Ordinance that have not been resolved.

Staff wears a bright yellow vest that says "Dexter Township" across the back.

Staff does not generally knock on doors to introduce themselves when conducting an inspection, but feel free to stop them if you have any questions.

Please contact us during business hours if you have any questions.
