Recently, there has been considerable misuse of the cardboard recycling dumpsters at the Township Hall. If the problem continues, the Township will be forced to discontinue the service after the holidays.

The bins and dumpster are for broken down cardboard boxes only. Any extra material dumped with the cardboard, including styrofoam and other refuse, means the contents cannot be properly recycled and must be disposed of as normal garbage instead.

Please do not overfill the cardboard recycling dumpsters or put cardboard outside of the containers. If they are full, please come back another day.

These cardboard recycling dumpsters are for Genoa Township residents only.

Due to the Covid-19 pandemic we ask that all visitors to the Genoa Township Offices consider following the below safety protocols.  Our top priority is maintaining the health and safety of our residents, employees, and their families.

• If possible we ask that you please utilize making payments by mail, online, or place in one of our drop boxes; either the drive up drop box in the front parking lot or the drop box located near the front entrance.  Any tax payments placed in our drop box will be mailed a paid receipt.
• Please consider limiting the use of cash and please prepare your checks before you enter the building.  Contact the Township Treasurer’s office at (810)227-5225 if you have questions regarding an amount due.
• If it is necessary for you to enter the building, we strongly recommend that all visitors wear a face mask and you will be required to follow the 6-foot distancing requirement, please follow the markings as to where to stand and walk through the township hall. If you have a medical reason that prevents you from wearing a mask please call (810)227-5225 to make an appointment.
• We request that any business that does not need to be conducted in person be done by phone, email, drop box or mail.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation during this difficult time.

Stay Safe, Stay Healthy!

Genoa Township is working on an updated recreation plan aimed at improving recreation opportunities for township residents.

Parks provide measurable health benefits, from encouraging direct contact with nature and a cleaner environment, to opportunities for physical activity and social interaction. Genoa Township recognizes that having local opportunities to enjoy parks and nature contribute to a healthy, vibrant and sustainable community. Planning for community recreation ensures that the township's resources are spent in a way that provides for current needs and anticipates the future. When our community comes together to plan and support recreation, the resulting action strategies are targeted to what the residents want and will support.
