To our Grant Township residents and taxpayers,


The Grant Township Board intends to soon vote on the founding resolutions to form the all new Grant Township Recreation Plan Committee. All of the existing committee members from the '5-Year Recreation Plan Steering Committee' will be considered for the new committee, as well as (4) new possible committee members who already submitted letters of interest during the review period.


Please note the updated timeline: The anticipated Recreation Plan Committee formation timeline is November 14th 2023, to formally adopt the Recreation Plan Committee Founding Resolution with Appendix A and Appoint (not less than 5, not more than 9) Founding Members and announce the first meeting date and time.


The primary goal for this new Recreation Plan Committee is to remain active throughout each year (as opposed to only every 5 years) to further develop the projects listed within the approved 5-Year Recreation Plan.


Letters of interest can still be sent to the Township Supervisor Scott Ochodnicky at: Scott.Ochodnicky@granttownshipmi.org
