About the PORTAGE TOWNSHIP Trustee

A trustee is the township’s executive officer and has various responsibilities to help a community thrive. The trustee provides management and leadership of the township which includes providing financial assistance to residents, maintaining public properties, and ensuring that the township has comprehensive fire protection. The trustee is also responsible for the accessibility of township records, community upkeep, and so much more.

In a time of crisis, a trustee’s office is there to help, and the resources available to them depend on the local needs of the community. From assisting residents in finding temporary shelter to coordinating emergency transportation, providing direct support to the community is the trustee’s top priority.

If you’re unsure if our office can help, please stop by for a visit, as we can connect you with a wealth of community resources and organizations.
