2025 Genoa Master Plan Update

Join us in a special update of the 2023 Master Plan, intended to confirm the direction of long-term policies with potential refinements as appropriate.

On February 3, 2025, the Township Board approved the start of the update process. This timeline is roughly 10-12 months and meeting dates, along with opportunities for community participation, will be posted here soon!

The process will begin with updating data and meeting with the Planning Commission to discuss goals/objectives and understand conditions in the study area.

Genoa Master Plan Update 2023

THE MASTER PLAN IS A GUIDING DOCUMENT and the culmination of over three years 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 and multiple public hearings also provided an important source of input during the process.

The finalized plan was adopted by the Genoa Township Planning Commission on February 13, 2023; the Genoa Township Board of Trustees adopted it thereafter on April 17, 2023.
