Hello Condo and HOA Boards – below is a message from our Clerk’s office they are hoping you can distribute to your residents:

Absentee ballots for the March 10 Presidential Primary should be mailed out in the first week of February.

The State of Michigan has mandated NEW envelopes for the ballots. Please be aware that you will receive the BLUE envelope in the mail, which contains a GREEN return envelope for your ballot. Ballots will no longer come out in manila envelopes. The BLUE envelope is new - it's not junk mail - so don't throw it out!

The new design was requested by the USPS to ensure timely delivery of return ballots to make sure everyone’s vote counts.

For more information, call the Clerk's Office at (734) 394-5120.
