Fenton Township officials have agreed to a multi-year contract with the Genesse County Sheriffâs Office.
At their latest meeting, the Fenton Township Board of Trustees voted in favor of renewing their contract with the Genessee County Sheriffâs Office for police services. They agreed to a 2-year contract ending December 31st, 2022, for a total of $782,811 per year. This is a 12-percent increase over the last contract signed.
The Tri-County Times reports this increase is due to the rising costs of healthcare and Genesee Countyâs ongoing issue with underfunded retirement plans. The county also assessed an administration fee for the first time.
The Fenton Township Board of Trustees approved a list of potential Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) projects to be submitted to Genesee County.
âOver Zoom on Monday, Dec. 14, Thomas Broecker, operations manager and deputy clerk, said the township is expected to receive approximately $117,573 in CDBG funds for 2022-2024. The township will submit seven pre-applications to Genesee County for review, and the county will determine which projects are eligible. The township will then choose which projects they will submit for a final application.
âOne proposed project was doing sewer improvements at pump station #26 at Petts Road. The estimated cost is $90,000. Another project is installing a wireless monitoring system at pump station #23, at Firestone Drive, and #27, which is at Pomona Court. These would cost approximately $5,000 each.
