Our Parks Department's goal each winter is to keep bike paths walkable and clear of snow. Crews plow bike paths every time at least four inches of snow falls and often begin work before 4:00 am in order to clear more than 60 miles of Township bike path in one day. Some areas, such as bike paths near schools, are prioritized for plowing. We appreciate your patience while crews work to keep bike paths and other Township facilities in usable condition.

Citizens in Ottawa County are able to text 911 from a cell phone in emergencies when dialing 911 is prohibitive. Examples of this might be those who are deaf or hard of hearing, people in domestic violence situations, a robbery or a home break-in situation where it might endanger the caller to talk on the phone. Text messages are limited to 256 characters. When sending a text to 911 dispatch, please be sure to send pertinent information first, such as your address/location, the type of emergency and your name so that dispatch can get the correct emergency vehicles en route before continuing the conversation. Please do not use any abbreviations or acronyms. Pictures or videos are also unable to be transmitted to the system. The most efficient way to contact 911 is still by calling directly to the dispatcher.
