THE TOWNSHIP BOARD OF TRUSTEES
Each single township has four trustees elected at large. They and the supervisor, comprise the town(ship) board of trustees. Generally speaking, the town board is the legislative branch of township government which establishes policy for the township to follow. Policies established by the town board are generally carried out by the supervisor and clerk in their capacities as administrators. The township trustees are responsible for certifying tax levies for the township and road district. The town board of trustees is also responsible for adopting the annual budget and appropriation ordinance for the town, cemetery, general assistance and the road and bridge funds. The trustees are also responsible for approving all town expenses and auditing bills submitted for payment by the highway commissioner.
