Supervisor John Stanowski announced that Washtenaw County?s sheriff department has offered to place three tornado sirens in the most populous area of York Township.
?They are setting up sirens in the most populous areas,? he explained.
According to Stanowski, Homeland Security will cover the cost of the sirens and installation. The township would have to pay $500 per siren, each year, for maintenance.
The plan is to cover the northern part of York Township because it has a relatively high population. The area served by the sirens would be north of Willis Road.
Several board members had questions.? ?If one of them malfunctioned, would we be liable?? asked Jane Kartje.
?I want to see what they look like and exactly where they will be placed,? commented Treasurer Sally Louis.
Stanowski agreed to wait until the March board meeting, March 12, and place the item on the agenda with additional information requested of the sheriff dept.
The board also discussed the Tiber Crossing residential development on Mooreville Road east of Maple. There was a question about how the plan could be approved with one residence landlocked.
Kartje reported the development includes six parcels, with 30 percent of the total development dedicated as a conservation easement. The development is south of the Saline River.
Kartje explained that one of the parcels did not have a roadway, so it was landlocked. The development?s owner, Sancta Familia of Ypsilanti, sent a representative to ask one of the other parcel owners to extend roadway to the landlocked home. Continued...

?So, they have a common maintenance agreement,? Kartje noted.
