Property Taxes

The Treasurer’s Office is responsible for the collection of taxes. The Treasurer sends out tax bills and posts payments from taxpayers. Only a small portion of the taxes collected are retained as Township funds. The majority of tax payments received at the township are then distributed to the various taxing authorities that we collect for; such as Farwell Area Public Schools, the State of Michigan, Clare County, Mid Michigan Community College, Clare County Transit, and the Commission on Aging. 

Some residents may also be charged special assessments that affect their property but may not affect all properties within the Township. These may include, lake levels and weed control in Crooked, 8 point, Perch and Gray lakes, solid waste handling facilities, and the Township Fire department.
