Tekonsha Township Voters Urged to Approve Fire Station Millage
A letter to Tekonsha Township voters asks approval of a millage under one mill to renovate the vacant Jorgensen Steel facility for a fire department and ambulance service. The plan includes upgrades, ADA restrooms, and safety systems with up to 70,000 from the Marshall Area Fire Fighters Ambulance Authority. The board stresses the millage fluctuates with values, funds only the renovation debt, and aims to ensure a safe, code compliant facility for responders.
