INCORRECT VEHICLE REGISTRATIONS It has come to our attention that a large number of vehicle registrations are improperly assigned to Genesee County, NOT Livingston. This means the township is losing 42 cents on every dollar that you pay for your license plates to Genesee County instead of being available to fix our roads. Please check your vehicle registration to make sure it is properly assigned to Livingston County. If it is incorrect, call the Secretary of State's office at 888-767-6424 so the township gets its proper share of the dollars.

These rate changes will be reflected in the April 2013 Utility Bill for all sewer billings in both residential and commercial. The following increase will cover cost incurred as of January 1, 2013: Grinder Residents = $185.50 Gravity Residents = $171.50 These rates include sewer flow usage along with funds held under Operating and Maintenance for repairs and maintenance to the system and funds held under Sewer Debt for payment to sewer bonds.
