Never let it be said that government never gives back...
Elk Township has found that it has amassed an excess of funds in the Midget Lake Special Assessment District, and the Midget Lake Association does not want to continue the Special Assessment District...
therefore, the Elk Township Board agreed by resolution to refund the monies in the S.A.D. to the owners of record, so if your friends wonder why they have received a check from Elk Township, you now know the answer...
you are welcome!
