Master Plan
This master plan is the culmination of over a year of dedicated work by the community. Elected and appointed officials of Genoa Township, township staff, township consultants, and the Livingston County Planning Department were all involved in its creation. Citizen participation in public workshops also provided an important source of input during the process.
The finalized plan was adopted by the Genoa Township Planning Commission on May 22, 2006; the Genoa Township Board adopted it shortly thereafter on June 19, 2006.
