CLARE POLICE DEPARTMENT PRESENTATION – YEAR IN REVIEW Our Police Chief, Brian Gregory, has prepared a brief Year in Review presentation, which I’ve asked him to present to the City Commission at Monday’s meeting. There are no surprises and nothing particularly remarkable about the annual statistics - the workload and the numbers simply continue to increase each year, thus increasing the stresses placed on our officers. The increases in assaults and weapons violations seem to mirror our nation’s present societal issues. The Chief will, at a later date, share this presentation with our Planning Commission, the Clare BOE, our local fraternal organizations, the Clare Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors, and any other groups or organizations that have interest.

  • 2021-2022 Livingston County Directory
    2021-2022 LIVINGSTON COUNTY DIRECTORY of National, State, County, Township, City and Village Officials Compiled by: Elizabeth Hundley Livingston County Clerk Howell, Michigan The Courthouse you see today is the second courthouse to occupy this site. The first building was a brick Greek Revival structure in 1847. This courthouse was torn down to make room for the present Courthouse, which was built in 1889. The Richardson Romanesque building was designed by Albert E. French, a Detroit architect. The site was deeded to Livingston County with the stipulation that it be used for county court purposes. Located on Grand River Avenue in downtown Howell, the Courthouse stands stately and proud, with its clock tower visible for miles. Its main structural components are brick, Ohio blue stone, and slate. These materials were selected for their durability. William Kessler and Associates were commissioned in 1975 to update the Courthouse, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Pages. The Victorian atmosphere is enhanced by the restoration of the oak woodwork, braze hardware, and marble floors. It is further complemented by the restoration and recreation of the original colors and decorative paintings. The preservation of the Courthouse offers the opportunity to save an important landmark for future generations to enjoy. 1 To the Citizens of Livingston County: This directory is published to serve as a resource guide to assist you in communicating with government offices and agencies, as well as elected and appointed officials at the local, county, state, and federal levels. Every effort has been made to ensure that the information provided is current.

  • 2020 Winter Workshop Training and Speakers
    2020 Winter Workshop Training and Speakers Friday, January 17 – 1:00-1:30 pm Michigan Treasury Update The most up-to-date report will be shared on the Michigan Department of Treasury from new State Treasurer, Rachael Eubanks. Rachael Eubanks, State Treasurer, Michigan Dept. of Treasury Lansing, Michigan 517-241-2624 Rachael Eubanks was appointed as Michigan’s 47th State Treasurer by Governor Gretchen Whitmer in January of 2019. She is committed to bringing creativity, collaboration and commitment to identify and implement solutions to some of Michigan’s greatest challenges. She does this while also building upon Treasury’s culture of service to Michiganders, through continuous improvement and employee engagement, which are the foundation of Treasury’s mission to provide fair and efficient financial services on behalf of taxpayers, governments, students and all Michiganders, for the long-term fiscal health and stability of our state. In 2016 she was appointed by Governor Rick Snyder (and reappointed in 2017) to serve on the Michigan Public Service Commission (MPSC) as a utility regulatory commissioner. In that capacity she reviewed and voted on hundreds of orders that helped shape Michigan’s energy future. In particular, the Commission had regulatory oversight over the implementation of two comprehensive energy law changes during her tenure. She served on several national organizations, including being elected as Vice President to the Organization of PJM States, Inc., and was on the Board of Directors of the National Association of Regulatory Utility Commissioners, where she was Chair of the Supplier and Workforce Development Subcommittee. Prior to that role, Treasurer Eubanks structured more than $25 billion in bond financings for public entities–primarily the state of Michigan, State Building Authority, Michigan Finance Authority and the Michigan Strategic Fund.
