Township Audit
12/31/2025 financial activities. Aaron Stevens, CPA and Principal with Maner
Results
Costerisan was present to review the audited financial statements.
The annual financial audit provides an independent opinion of the Township’s
financial statements on 12/31 each year. The audit offers reassurance to the Board,
and the community that it serves, that the Township’s financial statements provide
a clear and accurate picture of the DeWitt Charter Township’s financial standing.
Aaron Stevens presented an overview of the Township’s 2025 financial audit,
including a review of general fund revenues, expenditures, enterprise funds, and
upcoming governmental accounting standards.
The auditors reported that general fund revenues remained stable, with taxes
comprising approximately 53 percent of revenues and intergovernmental revenues
accounting for approximately 25 percent, consistent with prior years. On the
expenditure side, transfers to public safety special revenue funds increased
significantly due to the continued reporting structure for police and fire operations.
The presentation also included discussion of the Township’s sewer and water
enterprise funds. Auditors reported that the sewer fund maintained a healthy
unrestricted net position and noted that significant utility-related investments
remain associated with the utility authority. The auditors advised continued

Election Inspector
Wage Scale

Local Clerks frequently discuss compensation for election workers as part of
ongoing efforts to recruit and retain qualified inspectors. As the 2026 mid-term
election cycle is underway, it has become apparent that DeWitt Township is
beginning to fall behind neighboring municipalities in compensation provided to
election inspectors for their time and service. This disparity could have a negative
impact on both recruitment and retention efforts moving forward.
Consequently, Clerk Cramton is proposing an increase in compensation for DeWitt
Township election inspectors serving in elections beginning in 2026 and beyond.
While DeWitt Township’s election workers are not currently the highest
compensated in the region, the Clerk’s Office has consistently made every effort to
remain competitive with the Township’s closest municipal neighbors in order to
maintain regional consistency and continue attracting experienced, qualified election
personnel.
Clerk Cramton proposes the following wage scale effective June 1, 2026
• Chairpersons - $20.00/hr
• Assistant Chairpersons - $18.00/hr
• Election Inspectors - $17.00/hr
• Certification training $35
• All other training events $25
A brief history of Election Worker wages during Clerk Cramton’s tenure:
Effective January 1, 2024,
• Chairpersons - $18.00/hr
• Assistant Chairpersons - $16.00/hr
• Election Inspectors - $15.00/hr

DeWitt Charter Township Board Minutes
May 11, 2026
Page 6
Effective June 1, 2022,
• Chairpersons - $15.00/hr
• Assistant Chairpersons - $13.00/hr
• Election Inspectors - $12.00/hr
Effective January 2018,
• Chairpersons - $13.00/hr
• Assistant Chairpersons - $11.00/hr
• Election Inspectors - $10.00/hr
Clerk Cramton discussed the Township’s election inspector training and mentorship
structure, including the use of assistant precinct chair positions as a developmental
program for future precinct leadership. He noted the importance of hands-on
training related to precinct setup, voter interaction, election administration
procedures, and accurate precinct closing procedures. Clerk Cramton further
emphasized the value of maintaining experienced and returning election workers
and described ongoing efforts to evaluate election operations and improve
procedures following each election cycle.
Board members expressed appreciation for the Clerk’s administration of Township
elections and the professionalism and preparedness of DeWitt Township election
inspectors. Discussion also occurred regarding maintaining compensation levels
comparable to neighboring communities including Delta Charter Township, St.
Johns, and surrounding municipalities.
Stump moved, Hamp seconded, to establish the following Election
Inspector Pay Schedule, effective June 1, 2026, as follows: Chairperson
hourly rate at $20.00 per hour, Assistant Chairperson hourly rate at
$18.00 per hour, and Election Inspector hourly rate of $17.00 per hour.
Training pay of $35.00 for Certification Training, and $25.00 for ePollbook
and other miscellaneous trainings.
Motion voted and carried.

COMMENTS

Fire Department Report
Fire Chief Dave DeKorte provided an update on recent Fire Department activities
and incidents. Chief DeKorte reported on a vehicle fire along I-69 near Airport Road
involving an automobile valued at approximately $209,000, noting that the incident
would significantly affect annual fire loss totals.
Chief DeKorte also discussed ongoing coordination with Clinton County Central
Dispatch regarding replacement fire pagers and a planned transition from the
current VHF paging system to a digital system. He noted that increasing equipment
costs associated with tariffs had raised pager prices to more than $1,000 per unit,
and that the County was expected to assist with funding replacement equipment.
Additional updates included Fire Department assistance with a fire investigation on
Watson Road, mutual aid coordination with Lansing Township Fire Department

DeWitt Charter Township Board Minutes
May 11, 2026

during ongoing US-127 construction, and participation in a large apartment fire
response in Bath Township. Chief DeKorte commended Fire Department personnel
for their work during the Bath Township fire, particularly the operation of Truck 52
during suppression activities involving a multi-unit apartment building fire.
Chief DeKorte further reported on a fire incident at Granger Waste Services,
enforcement action involving an illegal burn within the Township, and a recent
demonstration of a new ladder truck from Bowling Green, Ohio. He also noted that
the Municipal Building South digital sign had been updated in recognition of Police
Memorial Week and memorialized fallen officers Bill Darnell and Gary Priess.
Chief DeKorte concluded by providing results from the Township’s recent American
Red Cross “Battle of the Badge” blood drive. The event resulted in 32 donors, six
deferrals, and 28 units of blood collected, exceeding the Red Cross collection goal
of 22 units. The Fire Department listed 16 donors to the Police Department’s 10.
Police Department Report
Police Chief Matt Merony thanked the Board for approving two additional police
officer positions and reported that the Department now has 18 sworn officers, the
largest staffing level in Department history. Chief Merony congratulated Officer
Jacob Scheib on graduating from the police academy and noted that Officer Micheal
Gillmore had recently begun academy training in Washtenaw County. Chief Merony
stated that staggered academy and field training schedules would help reduce
strain on Field Training Officers (FTOs) and announced that Officers Wes Sherman
and Megan Parviainen would serve as new FTOs for upcoming recruits.
Chief Merony further reported that a new patrol vehicle had been placed into
service and that an additional vehicle was expected to enter into service later in the
week. As part of fleet management efforts, an older patrol vehicle would be
removed from regular rotation pending replacement.
Chief Merony also discussed recent enforcement activity near the Kristana Trailer
Park area following reports of gang-related vandalism. He stated that officers
quickly identified and arrested two individuals connected to the activity and noted
that the Department is coordinating with property ownership and management
regarding trespassing enforcement and signage installation. Chief Merony expressed
concern regarding the potential for encampment-related activity and stated that
officers would continue proactive patrol and enforcement efforts in the area.
Chief Merony thanked the Board for its continued support of the Police and Fire
Departments and expressed optimism regarding future opportunities associated
with the Department’s expanded staffing levels.
In response to Board questions regarding staffing levels, Chief Merony stated that
the Department’s long-term staffing goal is 21 sworn officers, including a dedicated
full-time School Resource Officer (SRO) position. Chief Merony referenced
recommendations contained within the McGrath staffing study and noted that
staffing increases are intended to occur in phases over time. He further emphasized

DeWitt Charter Township Board Minutes
May 11, 2026
Page 8
the Department’s focus on hiring and retaining high-quality personnel rather than
filling vacancies solely to meet staffing targets.
Manager’s Report
Manager Amanda Bright McClanahan advised the Board to remain attentive to
ongoing activity at the State legislative level, particularly proposals affecting local
control and property tax policy. Manager McClanahan noted that several significant
legislative initiatives were currently under discussion, including proposed property
tax reforms described as among the most substantial since Proposal A. Manager
McClanahan encouraged Board members to continue monitoring updates from the
Michigan Township Association and other municipal information resources due to
the potential impacts on local governments.
Additionally, Manager McClanahan provided an update regarding upcoming road
construction projects, noting that Chandler Road closures were expected to begin
on June 15. She stated that Township staff would work with the Road Commission
to develop and distribute detour and traffic impact information. Discussion occurred
regarding anticipated traffic congestion and increased truck traffic on alternative
north-south routes throughout the Township, particularly along Wood Road and
other available corridors during the construction period.
Clerk’s Report
Clerk Cramton reported on the May 5 Ingham Intermediate School District election
conducted for eligible DeWitt Township voters residing within the Ingham ISD
district. Clerk Cramton stated that approximately 4,800 Township voters were
eligible to participate in the election.
The Clerk’s Office processed 645 absentee ballot applications, and 21 voters cast
ballots in person on Election Day. Clerk Cramton noted that turnout was low but
that the election was conducted successfully. He further reported that the election
canvass had been completed earlier that day and that the proposal passed overall.
Supervisor’s Report
Supervisor Brian Ross thanked the Police and Fire Departments for their
participation and volunteer efforts associated with the recent “Battle of the Badge”
blood drive and expressed appreciation for the positive community involvement
generated through the event.
Supervisor Ross also encouraged Board members to continue considering the
possibility of holding select Board meetings at alternative Township locations in the
future as a means of improving accessibility and public engagement. He further
suggested discussion regarding the possibility of adjusting future meeting start
times, such as 5:30 p.m. or 6:00 p.m., to determine whether alternative scheduling
may improve public participation.

Letter to the Board
The 2027 Budget has been carefully developed to balance ongoing liabilities with the growing needs of our systems and facilities. It is
structured to ensure all obligations are met while also maintaining and operating equipment as designed.
Labor costs have steadily increased over the past five years, largely driven by the competitive labor market in the region. SCCMUA is
currently operating under a revised staffing structure with one fewer employee than in previous years. As this structure is still being
evaluated, the budget conservatively includes funding for the additional position. While this may present an opportunity for future savings,
it is too early to formally incorporate those reductions into the financial plan.
Other budget components, which are less influenced by SCCMUA operations, include healthcare and retirement liabilities. We were
fortunate to have secured a cost-effective healthcare option this year; however, future costs remain uncertain. Healthcare expenses are
projected to increase at double-digit rates, and this has been accounted for in the 2027 budget. Pension obligations through MERS
continue to be a variable factor as well. While we may be nearing a plateau in pension-related costs, long-term trends remain uncertain.
Stabilization and gradual reduction are possible, but not guaranteed, and these costs should be viewed with a long-term perspective, and
therefore, an additional $13,000 has been budgeted for additional contributions.
Commodity-related expenses also play a significant role in this budget. Land application costs for biosolids continue to rise, with an 11%
increase budgeted over the prior year. Chemical costs are also increasing, despite ongoing efforts to evaluate alternatives through testing
and process optimization. Given current treatment requirements and NPDES permit constraints, a 7% increase in chemical costs has been
included.
The Plant and Process CIP have been updated to reflect current market pricing and anticipated replacement schedules. It is recommended
to increase the funding level in the Process CIP from 115% to 118%. This modest increase will help offset the cost escalations that have
been observed. Plant CIP is recommended to remain at the 65% funding level. A key outstanding question the SCCMUA team is actively
working through relates to future project costs associated with RBC replacements. In today’s market, the cost for this work is difficult to
define with precision. The first step will be identifying and testing a viable replacement technology, followed by collaboration with
consultants and construction teams to develop a more accurate cost estimate. The current plan allocates $12.3 million; however, at a high
level, further refinement is needed to ensure appropriate funding strategies are in place.
Overall, the 2027 Budget reflects a 5% increase over 2026 and fully supports ongoing operations, regulatory compliance, and future
planning efforts.

Fund Structure
The financial structure of SCCMUA is similar to other governments with the use of funds except that it only uses one fund.
Funds are the control structure that ensures that public money is spent only for those purposes authorized and within
amounts authorized. Funds are established to account for different types of activities and legal restrictions that are
associated with a particular government function. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) defines a fund
as:

A fiscal and accounting entity with a self-balancing set of accounts recording cash and other financial resources,
together with all related liabilities and residual equities or balances, and charges therein, which are segregated for
the purpose of carrying on specific activities or attaining certain objectives in accordance with special regulations,
restrictions, or limitations.

SCCMUA is a Proprietary Fund. It is not required to adopt an annual budget; however, the Authority Board does adopt an
annual Operating Budget and a 5-year Capital Improvement Plan following a public hearing. The Operating Budget
includes proposed expenses and the means to finance them. The Authority operating budget remains in effect but can be
revised with Board approval prior to the December 31 year end.
Proprietary funds – are used to account for a government’s business-type activities (ie: activities supported, at least in
part, by fees or charges). These funds are also known as enterprise funds.
Additionally, an SRF loan supported the most recent plant expansion project starting in 2023. A portion of each monthly
payment by the municipalities is allocated to the repayment of this loan that will conclude in 2054.
SCCMUA further breaks down this fund into departments. These departments represent each community’s collection
system, the plant, process, and Industrial Pretreatment. Following is an explanation of each account:
101 – DeWitt Township Collection System: This account represents all the expenses related to the repair
and maintenance of the collection system including lift stations, pipe, and manholes.
2|Page

102 – Bath Township Collection System: This account represents all the expenses related to the repair and
maintenance of the collection system including lift stations, pipe, and manholes.
103 – City of DeWitt Collection System: This account represents all the expenses related to the repair and
maintenance of the collection system including lift stations, pipe, and manholes.
104 – Watertown Township Collection System: This account represents all of the expenses related to the
repair and maintenance of the collection system including lift stations, pipe, and manholes.
105 – Joint Collection System: This account represents all the expenses related to the repair and maintenance
of the collection system including lift stations, pipe, and manholes. This includes Lift Station 501 and 504 and all of
the pipe and manholes from Twinbrook in DeWitt Twp to the Plant. This account is jointly owned by Bath and
DeWitt Twp, and is solely funded based on an average percentage of flow for the last three years of flow data.
200 – Plant: This account represents all of the expenses for the plant. Plant is defined as all of the buildings,
trucks, grounds, electrical, furniture, etc. It is funded based on ownership. Ownership percentages are as follows:
DeWitt Twp – 55.7576%, Bath Twp – 16.7273%, City of DeWitt – 11.3131%, and Watertown Twp – 16.2020%.
201 – Process: This account represents all the expenses for the process. Process is defined as all the equipment,
labor, chemicals, etc that are used to “treat” the flow coming through the plant. The account is funded based on
the last three years of data related to the flows coming into the plant from each of the communities.
666 – Industrial Pretreatment (IPP): This is a self-funding account. It is for the administration of the
Industrial Pretreatment program and is funded based on the number of users in each community.

Budget and Financial Policies
Investment Policy: The goal of this policy is to enhance the economic status of the Authority while protecting its
funds. The Authority is to invest its funds in a manner which will provide the highest investment return with the
maximum security while meeting the daily cash flow needs of the Authority and comply with all State statutes
governing the investment of public funds.
Capital Assets: The Authority uses a $5,000 benchmark to report acquisition of capital assets.
Long Term Capital Planning: The purpose of the Long-Term Capital Plan is to forecast capital and funding
requirements to meet long term (30 years) and short term (5 year) needs. Capital expenses are those that are less
than $30,000. Capital outlays are those that are more than $30,000.
Collection System Reserve Funding: it is recommended that the municipalities make a contribution of 7% of
the last three years annual collection system operating budget to their collection system reserves. A minimum
reserve balance of $75,000 is also recommended.
Industrial Pretreatment Fund Balance: After the fiscal yearend audit, all funds in the IPP fund balance over
$100,000 will be returned to the municipalities based on their number of commercial and industrial users.

Financial History
The Clean Water Facility was constructed under a Federal Grant. The plant opened on January 1, 1980. A decision
was made that all of the buildings, equipment, furniture, etc. that were in place prior to January 1, 1980, would be
on the financial statements of the four municipalities based on ownership. All assets after that date will be on the
financial statements of the Authority.
The Federal grant required that the municipalities put funds into reserves to replace the assets as needed.
Periodic wastewater rate studies were performed and as a part of that study, replacement reserves were
calculated. In the early years, reserves were not fully funded based on these studies. These reserves were fully
funded beginning in the early 1990’s. These reserve funds only funded assets obtained prior to January 1, 1980.
The municipalities also needed to set funds aside for assets purchased after January 1, 1980. Those assets were
depreciated on a straight-line depreciation method and depreciation was fully funded.
In 2008/2009, the Authority Board authorized funds for C2AE to perform a complete Long-Term Asset
Replacement Study. This process identified all assets within the facility and the estimated replacement date and
replacement cost. The replacement costs were only equipment costs, not total project costs, however, C2AE
updated the five-year plan to include engineering, contingency, administration, and overhead. This information
was then incorporated into a Rate Study model. In March 2011, the Authority Board adopted the model (Long
Term Capital Cost Analysis). As part of adopting the model, reserves and depreciation would no longer be funded
beginning with the 2012 budget. Reserves are funded based on the model and the adopted funding level for both
the process and plant. Each year the Board may adjust that funding level when the budget is adopted. Although
depreciation is no longer funded, it is still an expense to the Authority.

Capital Improvement Plan Justification
2027
Storage Building
As SCCMUA has grown alongside the communities, the amount of equipment required to maintain the plant and system has also increased.
Additional storage is needed for equipment that needs to remain out of the elements when not in use. The best location identified is behind
the new digester, where it can be out of sight and easily heated by the digester system. $75,000
Primary Clarifiers
The primary mechanisms are original to the plant; the metal components are deteriorating due to exposure to elements. The cost for these
items is planned to be $815,000
Plant Potable water system.
This system has been in place since the plant was started and has served its design life sufficiently. A new system will be more compact
and take up less space but provide better service to the plant based on its use. $120,000
2028
2015 Ford Explorer
This vehicle is used for a variety of different applications. From simple transportation, to working on missed digs/inspections requests, and
a variety of other needs as vehicle availability gets limited during certain times of the year. $45,000
1 Half-ton trucks
These two trucks are used for miscellaneous repairs and general transportation for staff. The price in the CIP reflects an electric option as
this would provide a well-suited option for an electric vehicle. To reduce overall maintenance and O/M cost. $50,000
Sewage injector controls
This system controls the waste material generated in the digester building and pumps it back to the mudwell for treatment. $6000.00
East digester sludge pump
These pumps use a positive displacement pump to transfer solids from the digesters to the storage tank and are used weekly at a
minimum. The west pump was replaced in 2018 due to premature failure. $50,000

33 | P a g e

Digester gas metering equipment
This equipment is necessary to ensure a safe workspace and to declassify a confined workspace due to the nature of the potential leaks in
the system of explosive gas. $10,000
Supernatant VFDS SC-765
These allow for precise control of the supernatant pump rates. $15,000
Digester gas handling equipment
This equipment transports digester gas to be compressed and or flared off. This system may change pending the partnership with Bioworks
Energy. $40,000
Digester roof
The roof is a ballasted system with stone, which, in time, negatively impacts the roof membrane and can begin to leak. $28,000
Effluent Pumps
This system is used to pump clean process water through the plant to be used for chemical delivery and plant rinse waters for cleaning.
$45,000
Primary Clarifier grates
These are isolation gates for the primary clarifiers, allowing flow to be diverted from one clarifier to another.
$15,000
2029
Telephone system
The telephone system is crucial to daily operations, as well as ensuring compliance with necessary communication protocols related to
plant safety and specific operations. $15,000
Pole building Roof
SCCMUA pole building structure is key to housing many of our critical equipment. Shingled roofs do not last forever, and to protect the
asset, the roof will need to be replaced at it nearing the end of its useful life. $20,000
CP 700 Digester control panel
This is the electronic controls for the digester operations with control valve operation and pump sequencing. $100,000

34 | P a g e

IO rack Territory filters communication and programming
This unit holds the communication cards, along with handling communication protocols for the filter system. The unit is becoming
unsupported and will need to be updated to be capable of future systems. $35,0000
SCCMUA and station SCADA hardware and software updates
This system is no longer supported, and both hardware and software are incompatible with updated operating systems. This system is
heavily relied upon for the operation and control of all aspects of our facility. $175,000
Mudwell Pumps and controls
The mudwell collected and redistributed all use waters at the facility back to the front of the plant for processing. This is done with two
pumps, one serving as a backup. $45,000
2030
Digester recirculation pumps
These pumps are responsible for mixing and recirculating sludge that has been pumped into the digesters to be digested and further
broken down. The mixing is crucial to the digester operation in maintaining a constant temperature and contact with the feedstock.
$50,000
Ferric Chloride Tanks
The ferric chloride tanks store chemicals for use in additional treatment processes to reduce phosphorus and meet our permitted limits.
The tanks are original and are showing their age. $50,000
Digester access Pavement
The digester, located at the back of the plant, has its own drive and access. This pavement is affected by heavy truck traffic due to the
hauling of biosolids twice a year, resulting in over 1,000 loads annually. Naturally, the pavement will degrade over time and will require
replacement. The estimated cost is $120,000, assuming minimal base work is needed.
2018 Half ton truck
This truck is a part-and-plant truck used for miscellaneous activities to keep wear off our larger trucks for mowing and general
maintenance. $50,000
Plant HVAC system
This system has been upgraded on time prior and is nearing its life expectancy as the system uses effluent water to heat and cool. The

35 | P a g e

non-conditioned water can be corrosive and has created problems in the system that need to be replaced. $85,000

2031
Exterior concrete building sealing and caulking
With the SCCMUA building being constructed of concrete panels, it is important to keep sealant and joints chalked to prevent moisture
from penetrating the concrete and causing premature failures. $29,000
2017 F-250 with liftgate and plow
This particular truck gets a lot of heavy use related to station maintenance and snow removal, along with tasks for lifting heavy items in
and out of the bed of the truck. $60,000
Electrical Van
The electrical van is driven by our electrician, who travels the entire system conducting repairs and maintenance, it also houses all the
tools and equipment unique to the field. $45,000

Activity Report

Page 1

DEWITT TOWNSHIP POLICE DEPARTMENT
April is National Distracted Driving Awareness Month

A 911 caller stated that he located two suspects trespassing at a family member’s home that had
recently suffered a fire. The caller said they heard an electric screwdriver being used and went to
investigate the back of the property. When officers arrived, the suspects claimed they thought the
property was abandoned and that they wanted to do urban exploring like others online. They denied
removing the Private Property sign from the driveway but admitted to removing screws from a board that
was blocking the entrance of the home. Both suspects are facing charges for Attempted Breaking and
Entering.
A DTPD Officer observed a pedestrian walking on the wrong side of the road in the dark. The officer
activated their lights and attempted to contact the pedestrian. The suspect looked directly at the officer
and began to flee. A second officer in the area began a foot chase and gave the suspect commands to
stop. The suspect eventually tripped and the officer gained control of them. The suspect stated they
had a gun concealed in their clothing. The loaded firearm was located. When questioned, the suspect
said they bought the gun from a friend, and it was not registered. A file check revealed that the firearm
had been reported stolen from Lansing. The suspect is facing several Felony Firearm charges as well
as R&O.
Meijer asset protection notified DTPD that a subject was being detained in their office for retail fraud.
Officers arrived on scene and a Meijer employee stated they recognized the suspect from several other
retail fraud incidents at other local Meijer stores. The suspect was observed scanning only a portion of
their items before attempting to leave the store. The suspect admitted stealing the items totaling almost
$200.00. The suspect also stated they were already on probation for retail fraud. The suspect made
many excuses for stealing the items and was very upset that they were being arrested. The suspect
was lodged at the Clinton County Jail for misdemeanor Retail Fraud.

SUBJECT:

Corridor Improvement Authority Appointments

MANAGER
Amanda B. McClanahan

The US-127 BR (Old 27) Corridor Improvement Authority (CIA) was established in 2010 pursuant to
Act 280 of the Public Acts of 2005. The purpose of the Authority is to develop plans and financing
mechanisms for enhanced infrastructure improvements within the development area and to promote
a superior environment for business and community activity.
The development area of the Authority consists of all land and improvements located within five
hundred (500) feet on either side of the centerline of US-127 BR between Sheridan Road and
Northcrest Road. Pursuant to the adopted bylaws, the Authority shall consist of no fewer than five (5)
and no more than nine (9) members. The CIA currently has seven (7) members serving on the
Authority.
Over the past several months, four applications have been submitted for consideration for
appointment to the Corridor Improvement Authority. The bylaws stipulate that one member shall be
the Township Supervisor or their designee, and that the Supervisor shall appoint the remaining
members subject to approval by the Board of Trustees. Additionally, a majority of the members must
have an ownership or business interest in property located within the development area, with at least
one (1) member residing within one-half (½) mile of any portion of the development area.
Of the four applications received, two applicants met the established eligibility criteria for
appointment through residency within one-half (½) mile, or business interest in the development
area. Mr. Adam Baczkiewicz, a resident of Boichot Road, has expressed interest in serving on the
Authority. Mr. Baczkiewicz has resided in DeWitt Township since January 2026 and is currently
volunteering with Junior Achievement, where he assists in providing financial education to elementary
school students. Additionally, Michael Jessup, CIO of McDaniels Kitchen and Bath is also interested in
serving.

Recommended action:
To approve the appointment of Adam Baczkiewicz to the US-127 BR Corridor Improvement Authority
for the remainder of a term that expires on December 31, 2028, and to approve the appointment of
Michael Jessup to the US-127 Corridor Improvement Authority for the remainder of a term that
expires on December 31, 2027.
