Water

Many areas of the Township are served by a public water system through the Lansing Board of Water and Light (Board). Applications for public water service from the Board should be made through the Building Department. The Building Department will forward the application to the Board on your behalf and the Board will provide you a cost estimate for installing water service for your review and approval. Upon approval and agreement of payment arrangements between you and the Board, the installation will be scheduled. After the initial application for service is made through the Township, all future inquiries concerning water services should be made directly to the Board of Water & Light Customer Service Department at (517) 371-6006.

Areas of the Township not served by the Board of Water and Light will require private wells. Applications for well permits must be obtained through the Mid-Michigan District Health Department, Clinton County Branch. The Health Department is located at 306 Elm Street, St. Johns, MI or by calling (989) 224-2195.
