Millington Board approves Wilkinson contract update, MTA conference attendance and sign-ordinance revision per attorney advice
Summary
The board approved updating the Wilkinson contract to reflect a name change, authorized attendance at the MTA conference for board members and staff, and, following attorney counsel, directed the planning commission to revise the township sign ordinance for state compliance.
At its Jan. 20 meeting the Millington Township Board approved several administrative items: an update to the Wilkinson contract, authorization for board members and staff to attend the Michigan Townships Association (MTA) conference, and a motion asking the planning commission to revise the township sign ordinance as recommended by the township attorney.
A motion to update the Wilkinson contract — specifically to change LuAnne’s name to Robert’s name in the contract text — was approved unanimously after a motion by S. Keinath supported by R. Loomis.
The board also approved attendance at the MTA conference scheduled for March 31–April 3, 2025, authorizing township payment of registration (estimated $400–$425 per person), housing and a $50 per diem for meals; the motion allowed township board, deputy clerk, deputy treasurer and the zoning administrator to attend.
Finally, following advice from the township attorney, a motion by L. Jaruzel and supported by R. Loomis asked the planning commission to revise the sign ordinance to bring it into greater compliance with state law; the motion passed with all Ayes except S. Keinath who recorded a Nay.
