Public Notice: Manchester Township Resolution No. 17-05 regarding 2018 March Board of Review

Manchester Township Hall

RESOLUTION NO. 17-05

RESOLUTION AND OVERVIEW regarding 2018 March Board of Review

PA 194 of 2003 provides for alternate starting dates for the township board of review’s first meeting in March. A township board may authorize an alternate starting date by an ordinance or resolution. MTA recommends township boards who wish to provide an alternate starting date adopt a resolution instead of an ordinance, because an ordinance must be published and would have to be amended if the board wanted to change the dates in the future.

A township board may choose to stay with the second Monday in March or specify an alternative date of the Tuesday or Wednesday following the second Monday in March. Township boards should consult with the asessor, supervisor, or board of review chairman before adopting an alternate date.
