The board also approved warrant number nine of 2026 totaling over $6 million, which included payroll, general fund disbursements, community development block grant funds, capital project funds, and American Rescue Plan funds, the latter notably used for fire apparatus acquisition. Additionally, the board adopted the first reading of a comprehensive zoning ordinance rewrite to modernize and clarify township regulations, with further public engagement planned for phase two. Public comments raised concerns about e-bike safety enforcement, courthouse security, and transparency regarding the channel repair project. The board responded by emphasizing ongoing dialogue, coordination with state authorities, and commitment to public safety and transparency. Other agenda items included appointments, proclamations, and updates on township programs and events.
