The Coldwater Township Board Monday declined to allocate more than $15,000 to repave 5.1 miles of its local roads this summer after Branch County Road Commission Manager Jay Miller informed them the proposed township share would be $22,542.
The dispute rekindles an old issue of whether townships must contribute at all to local road construction or maintenance under Michigan law.
Township Supervisor Don Rogers, a member of the Michigan Township Association Board of Directors said “The township is not responsible for maintenance of local roads. The township is not responsible for roads, period.”
This includes any liability for local roads.
