Township Roads

Local Road Millage
Crystal Lake Township enacted the 2015 approved local road millage, a levy of 1.0 mill ($1.00 per $1000 of taxable value) for a 5-year period.  It would raise an estimated $158,087 in the first year.

The current county road millage was deemed inadequate and a significant monetary shortfall existed to repair our local township roads.   The millage will provide funds to improve, repair and maintain the asphalt roads within our Township.

The following is a report on the Crystal Lake Township roads conducted by an independent company, Networks Northwest, of Traverse City, Mich.  The roads are rated and have been given a general condition and treatment measure.  The study was done in 2013 and will be administered again in 2015.
