Be a Part of Two New PFAS Studies
The Michigan Department of Health and Human Services is conducting two new PFAS health studies that Township residents with private wells may be eligible to participate in.

Join Kent County’s Local Takeout Challenge
Want to support your favorite local restaurants during the COVID-19 pandemic?
The Kent County Takeout Challenge encourages residents to support locally owned restaurants during the Pause to Save Lives order that limits food service to takeout and delivery. The challenge – which goes through the end of the year – urges community members to order takeout and publicly challenge three friends to do the same by tagging them on social media and using the hashtag #KCTakeoutChallenge.
Residents who notice issues on or near roads in their neighborhood can report them on the Kent County Road Commission’s website.
The Road Commission handles issues regarding mailbox or vehicle damage, dead animals, ice or snow, environmental spills, potholes, downed trees or branches and traffic signs or signals.
Any streetlights that are burned out, flickering or won't stay on can be reported on Consumers Energy’s website.
