TUSCOLA COUNTY With only hours to spare, Tuscola County commissioners agreed April 29 to extend a local declaration of emergency to allow virtual meetings to continue in the county.
The state of emergency commissioners approved in March after a three hour discussion extended the declaration until April 30.
Although showing some improvement, the number of COVID cases in Tuscola County is still a concern, so after more than an hour of discussion, the declaration was extended.
During audience participation, there were a few like Unionville Village Clerk Jessica VanHove, Kingston School District Superintendent Matt Drake, Tuscola County Road Commission Finance Director Mike Tuckey, and County Clerk Jodi Fetting, and some others who said they wanted the declaration extended.
