​From Robert Cannon, Supervisor,
 
The dynamic and rapid events surrounding the spread of the COVID-19 coronavirus has led the Township to take a course of action with the health and safety of our residents in mind.
 
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Michigan Dept. of Health and Human Services (MDHHS), the best way to prevent illnesses is to avoid close contact with people who are sick and to put distance between yourself and other people if COVID-19 is spreading in your community. At this point, there are no reported or confirmed cases of the coronavirus in Clinton Township, but we are taking the following steps as a precaution.

• Until further notice, the Department of Public Works personnel will not enter homes to provide service and will observe the CDC’s 6-foot distance recommendation when communicating in person with the public.
• The Clerk’s Office is suspending passport processing until April 1 and will reevaluate a startup date at that time.
• The Treasurer’s office will remain open to accept payments at the counter in the Civic Center. For safety and convenience, customers can utilize our online and IVR (phone) payment systems.  E-check payments are free, credit and debit cards incur a 2.8% service fee charged by our vendor. Access the payment page at https://clintontownship.com/bill-payments.html.
• The Building Department is limiting some inspections.  Call with questions regarding setting up your inspection.
• The Water Department has canceled all water meter replacement appointments for the week of March 16 through March 20. A decision about further cancelations will be communicated on Monday, March 16. All other Water & Sewer customer services are business as usual.
• Parks & Recreation has canceled all programs and services until April 6, after which an evaluation about future events will be made.
• The Senior Center will remain closed until April 6. In the meantime, buses are traveling for essential services only. SMART SENIOR BUSES are cancelled until further notice.
• A Senior Center hotline is available for up-to-date information at 586-723-8127. 
• The Senior Center is taking phone calls to transact business, from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
• No training or educational seminars with large groups will take place in meeting rooms.
• The Civic Center Park restrooms will remain open and will be disinfected once per day. 
• Civil Service employment applications should be printed, filled out, and returned via email to employment@clintontownship-mi.gov.  Current job postings and the employment application are available at www.clintontownship/employment.

 
As other services are affected by the spread of the COVID-19 coronavirus, this list will be updated.
 
Press Release Statement

The Clerk’s Office is suspending passport processing until April 1, and will reevaluate a startup date at that time.

​Each year, when I look at my calendar, I draw a big circle around the date of an annual event that several thousand Macomb County seniors and I love to attend. It’s the Senior Wellness and Retirement Expo, Macomb County’s premier health care event. The Expo is scheduled to take place on Friday, April 3rd, but in order to maintain a safe environment and protect our most vulnerable population from the potential spread of the coronavirus, we have canceled the Senior Expo for this year. The safety of our residents is a top priority, and we are closely monitoring the coronavirus and are taking action based on guidance from public health experts. This is a precautionary and proactive measure to help slow any transmission of the coronavirus among our senior residents. I am confident the Expo will be back in 2021.

​It is with the most sincere regret that the Clinton Township Police Honor Guard must make the following announcement:
 
Having considered all current factors associated with the circumstances surrounding COVID-19, the Clinton Township Police Honor Guard must postpone the March 24, 2020 spaghetti dinner held at the Mirage Banquet Center with hope to move it to another date. Recommendations have been made to postpone large gatherings.  Our goal is to ensure the safety and security of our citizens and guests at all times to include continued health. 
 
For 24 years, the Clinton Township Police Honor Guard has been able to enjoy the charitable donations from our many partners within the community equally with our guests in large numbers.  Along with the rest of the world, we anxiously await a successful resolution to the COVID-19 outbreak.  Pending that resolution, we must postpone the spaghetti dinner.  Any tickets that were already purchased will be accepted at the reset date.  We apologize if the postponement arrives with any amount of frustration as we, too, share your feelings.  However, we look forward to holding our event as soon as possible. 
 
If there are any additional questions or concerns, please contact Sergeant Anthony Coppola,
