Board approves two Capac annexations after village and township resolutions; owners consent documented
Summary
The St. Clair County Board approved final annexation of two parcels into the village of Capac (KPAC) after both the village and township passed supporting resolutions and property owners consented in writing. The matter was opened as a public hearing earlier in the meeting; no public speakers opposed the annexations at the hearing.
The St. Clair County Board of Commissioners approved final action Nov. 6 on two annexations transferring parcels from the township into the village of Capac (KPAC).
County staff explained that both the village and the township passed resolutions supporting the annexations and that the property owners had submitted written consent. Under Michigan law, when a village and the township that contains it agree to an annexation and the property owner consents, the county board must approve the transfer; commissioners said they had received the required documents.
The board approved the two annexations by final action; each resolution will be recorded in the county file. Commissioners noted that such annexations commonly occur where village sewer and water are needed for development that cannot be provided by the township.
No opposition from the public was voiced during the public hearing portion of the meeting; the item had been opened for comment earlier in the agenda and then taken up for final vote in the Ways & Means Committee.
