be advanced, delayed, modified, or eliminated based on funding,
priorities, and needs;
The CIP is used to guide annual budget development within available
resources and staffing capacity; project cost estimates are inflationadjusted and based on current asset conditions and expected useful
life, but may vary from final costs due to scope and timing changes;
It was noted future facility projections included in the CIP are
preliminary planning estimates and may change based on future
studies, including the Fairgrounds Master Plan and evolving facility
needs;
Discussion included concerns regarding aging building infrastructure,
including HVAC and air handling systems, and the importance of
prioritizing health, safety, and statutorily required functions;
Committee members also discussed challenges related to project
scheduling, contractor availability, bidding timelines, and staffing
capacity when implementing capital projects;
Discussion followed including information on the report to identify
projects supporting statutorily required functions and discretionary
functions;
Future steps include a review of proposed CIP updates in July when
the Board will have the opportunity to provide input on the
prioritization of projects, and an updated CIP (including 2027 budget
details) will be presented with the full 2027 budget recommendation in

AGENDA ITEM NO. 21
Introduced by the:
INGHAM COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
RESOLUTION OPPOSING MICHIGAN CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT THAT WOULD
DISENFRANCHISE INGHAM COUNTY CITIZENS
RESOLUTION #26 – 280

WHEREAS, Ingham County has a strong history of protecting the right to vote and ensuring that voting is safe
and accessible for the approximately 190,000 active registered voters residing in the county; and
WHEREAS, Michigan voters overwhelmingly passed Proposal 2 of 2022, a slate of pro-voter reforms that
provided voters with access to same-day registration, no-excuse absentee voting, and in-person early voting;
and
WHEREAS, Michigan’s investment in pro-voter policies and the commitment of our election officials to
implement these changes have made our elections a point of national recognition and statewide pride, earning
the state an A+ grade from the Institute for Responsive Government’s Election Progress Report in both 2023
and 2024; and
WHEREAS, a group called “Americans for Citizen Voting” submitted 750,000 petition signatures for a ballot
initiative aiming to change the Michigan Constitution and require documentary proof of citizenship when
Michigan citizens register to vote; and
WHEREAS, by requiring voters to show a passport or birth certificate when registering to vote — as well as
requiring additional documents when casting one’s ballot — this ballot initiative would create red tape, increase
confusion about the voter registration process, and create cost barriers for the more than 680,000 Michiganders
who do not possess or who lack easy access to these documents; and
WHEREAS, similar proposals in other states have stripped away the vote from many legal U.S. citizens, with
documentary proof of citizenship laws in Kansas blocking about 30,000 American citizens from voting over the
course of two years; and
WHEREAS, this initiative would disproportionately impact married women, rural citizens, low-income voters,
people with disabilities and citizens without a permanent home.
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that the Ingham County Board of Commissioners strongly opposes the
Orwellian-named “Americans for Citizen Voting” ballot initiative and urges residents to beware of this and
similar efforts to disenfranchise Ingham County citizens.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Ingham County Clerk is requested to forward copies of this adopted
resolution to the other 82 Counties in Michigan, as well as the Ingham County Delegation of the State
Legislature.

2025
ANNUAL
REPORT
“A YEAR OF PUBLIC
HEALTH PROGRESS”

From Our Health Officer
Dear Community Members,
Public health often captures attention during times of crisis, but the work of public
health professionals extends far beyond emergencies. Every day, our team at the
Mid-Michigan District Health Department (MMDHD) works to protect and promote
the health and safety of our community. From dropping off a child at daycare or
school, to dining at a local restaurant, welcoming a new baby, swimming, camping,
or even getting a tattoo—local public health staff are involved in each of these
settings to help ensure your well-being.
Prevention is a central focus of our work. Our staff provides hearing and vision
screenings and oral health assessments in schools, while our dedicated nursing
team offers childhood and seasonal vaccinations and shares the latest guidance with
families. These services help keep our children healthy and ready to learn. This
summer, our team participated in Back-to-School events alongside local human
service organizations to help children and families prepare for the upcoming school
year. By working together to provide essential items such as backpacks,socks, and
hygiene kits, we helped set students up for success while easing the financial pressures many families
face.
This commitment to prevention and preparedness was evident during a recent measles outbreak in
Montcalm County. Through trusted, common-sense, community-based strategies, our communicable
disease nurses successfully reduced the risk of further transmission across the region. Clear
communication, careful planning, and expanded access to vaccines—through extended clinic hours, along
with dedicated phone lines, and public awareness outreach were key to protecting our community.
Our Environmental Health programs also play a critical role in disease prevention. Environmental Health
Specialists conduct inspections and testing to reduce food- and water-related illnesses, monitor
recreational water sites for contamination, and collect tick and mosquito samples to increase awareness of
vector-borne diseases.
We support household harm reduction initiatives by providing cannabis lock bags for safe storage and
reduce accidental ingestion of cannabis, We offer gun locks to promote safe storage in the home, radon
test kits to reduce lung cancer risk, and lead cleaning kits for families.
Equally important is caring for ourselves as we care for others. Small habits—such as practicing
mindfulness, increasing physical activity, staying hydrated, and prioritizing sleep—can strengthen mental
health and help us better serve the community.
I am grateful for the continued support of the Board of Health, particularly during a year marked by
financial uncertainty due to paused and rescinded federal funding. This past year also marked the
successful completion of Community Health Needs Assessments in all three counties—an achievement
made possible through strong partnerships and collaboration to develop data-driven solutions.
As the agency approaches the 65th year of serving Clinton, Gratiot, and Montcalm counties, our
commitment to meeting the evolving needs of our residents remains unwavering. I am truly honored to
lead such a dedicated and passionate public health team. If you haven’t already, I encourage you to visit
our website at www.mmdhd.org and sign up for our monthly newsletter to stay informed about our
programs and services.
Warm Regards,

Liz Braddock
Health Officer

A Letter From Our
Medical Director
The health of our families in Clinton, Gratiot, and
Montcalm counties cannot be separated from the health
of our pets, animals, songbirds, pollinators, and the
woods and waters around us. Public health professionals
call this idea One Health — the recognition that human,
animal, and environmental health are one interconnected
system. In a rural Mid-Michigan district where dairy barns,
deer trails, and family backyards sit side by side, One
Health is not an abstract concept. It is how we work every
day.
The most visible One Health story we have seen recently
was Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza, or HPAI.
Montcalm County was the site of Michigan's first affected
dairy in March 2024, and our team was at the center of the
national response. In 2024, alongside our partners at
MDHHS, MDARD, and the CDC, MMDHD staff monitored
the health of hundreds of exposed dairy and poultry
workers, hosted free farmworker flu vaccination clinics,
and contributed to peer-reviewed publications in the New
England Journal of Medicine, Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR), and
Nature Medicine documenting the only dairy-associated human cases and spillovers into
household cats in Michigan. I am deeply proud of the public health team who carried this
work with patience and respect for our farming neighbors.
Closer to the ground, our vector-borne surveillance and prevention program matured.
With state grant funding, we expanded mosquito and tick surveillance in Clinton and
Montcalm counties, refreshed our seasonal Mosquitoes & West Nile and Ticks & Lyme
Disease press releases, and promoted Michigan's free "Got a Tick? Submit a Pic!"
identification service. We also kept rabies in front of mind, following up on many bat
exposures and animal bites. We send bats to MDHHS lab for rabies testing and give
guidance to the public and healthcare professionals about rabies prevention shots.
There are many other examples of One Health work we have done over the years. Given
that most new and emerging illnesses are zoonotic, or of animal origin, our One Health
work will only continue to grow. I am grateful for the consistent work of our nurses,
sanitarians, environmental specialists, and clerks who bridge animal, human, and
environmental health every single day. We will keep showing up — together — in 2026
and beyond.
Sincerely,

Dr. Jennifer Morse

Substance Use Prevention
Substance use affects individuals and families across all communities, including
rural counties. Harm reduction approaches acknowledge that while recovery is
the ultimate goal, access to support and safety services is essential at every
stage. These strategies provide a practical framework for improving safety while
reflecting the resilience, adaptability, and commitment to positive change
present within communities. Recognizing challenges with honesty and continuing
forward demonstrates determination and strength.
Research from organizations such as the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) and the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services
Administration (SAMHSA) consistently shows that harm reduction strategies save
lives, reduce healthcare costs, and increase the likelihood that individuals will
engage in treatment and recovery services.
In rural areas, barriers such as limited transportation, provider shortages, and
geographic distance can delay access to care for substance use disorders. Harm
reduction services help bridge these gaps while strengthening collaboration
among healthcare providers, emergency responders, public health agencies, and
community-based organizations.
Harm reduction is focused on reducing preventable deaths, protecting families,
limiting the spread of infectious diseases, and creating pathways to resilience,
recovery, and long-term stability. Compassionate, evidence-based programs
deliver measurable benefits for the entire community.
Resilience is demonstrated not by the absence of challenges, but by the
continued effort to make safer, healthier choices despite difficult circumstances.
Through the implementation of harm reduction initiatives, communities have
made meaningful progress in reducing risk, improving stability, and enhancing
overall well-being. Programs such as naloxone distribution, overdose prevention
education, syringe service programs, infectious disease testing, and connections
to treatment services contribute to fewer preventable deaths and improved
long-term health outcomes.
In the District, having continued collaboration among local leaders, health
officials, and community stakeholders will ensure that harm reduction strategies
remain responsive to community needs. Investment in prevention, education,
and accessible services strengthens outcomes for individuals and families and
supports a healthier, more resilient communities.

Recognizing Harm Reduction Efforts
in Montcalm County
PROMOTION
Mid-Michigan District Health Department (MMDHD) staff participated in community events throughout the
three-county district in 2025; We Care of Kids Fun Day, Great Start Collaborative Baby-Shower Event, Voices of
Flat River Pride Event, Montcalm Care Network’s Health Fair, Sheridan Health Fair, Naloxone Distribution at
Carson City Frontier Days and Edmore Potato Festival, along with supporting Montcalm Prevention
Collaborative’s A Day of ACCEPT (Awareness, Compassion, Collaboration, Education, Prevention, Treatment)
Event – all of these events raise awareness around substance use disorders.
MMDHD also hosted information sessions to the Senior Meal Programs regarding Narcan and its importance in
the community as well as awareness of how cannabis use and prescription medications can have
contraindications and the importance of talking to a physician/pharmacist before combing the two.

PREVENTION (EDUCATION)
Health Educators provided prevention education regarding Alcohol, Tobacco, and Other Drugs to over 313
middle- and high-school students in 2025. One-Hundred Forty-Four Hours of instruction was provided free-ofcharge to three (3) local schools (Greenville Middle School, Lakeview Middle School & Lakeview High School)
totaling over 1,100 student contact hours – Project SUCCESS pre- and post-tests showed an increase of
knowledge as it related to overall health and wellness vs substance use, misuse and addiction.
Staff participated in the Retail Alcohol Data Collection which surveyed availability of high alcohol by volume
(HAV) “ready-to-drink” beverages sold in Montcalm and Gratiot County Retailers – resulted indicated 73 of 78
retailers surveyed sold HAV beverages with almost all costing less than a 20oz bottle of Coca-Cola.

TREATMENT
Health Educators provided over 100 hours of Prevention-Focused Insight to the Adult Recovery Court.
Staff provide informational resources to those wanting to enter treatment – partnerships with local Medically
Assisted Treatment (MAT) Facilities helps bridge the gap between active-addiction and recovery.
