Office Moves – Internal

February 4th – 13th, 2026

We are in the process of relocating our internal offices to better serve our public needs. We apologies in advance for any inconvenience this may cause during this move. Our main telephone number and email will remain active during the moves. Certain offices will be down during their moves and will resume operations once reconnections are re-established. Thank you for your understanding, and we look forward to completion of this positive move.

The purpose of these moves is to relocate offices receiving the greatest public demand closer to our front entrance. This then will provide improved access to these offices, making it much faster and easier to receive your needed services. Again thank you for your understanding and we look forward to providing you the improved services.

Upcoming ITC Vegetation Management Work

January 23, 2026 – We’d like to inform Whitehall Disc Golf Course, Hilts Landing users and the community that vegetation management work for an ITC transmission line rebuild will begin in late January and is expected to last approximately two weeks. For safety purposes, crews will install barricades and clearly mark areas that are temporarily closed. We ask all visitors at and near the disc golf course to please respect these restrictions and avoid the designated work zones while crews are on site.

Looking ahead, construction for the line rebuild is currently scheduled for this October, and additional information will be shared as that timeframe approaches. We apologize for the inconvenience this may cause and appreciate everyone’s cooperation and focus on safety as this work is completed.

BROADBAND MAP

State urging communities and residents to challenge the FCC’s broadband map

Because high-speed internet is not available to nearly a half-million homes in Michigan, the state is urging every Michigander to check their home and business address on the preliminary broadband map to ensure it accurately reflects their level of internet access. The Michigan High-Speed Internet Office is also working to challenge the map, but it’s important for everyone across the state to know how to view and challenge the map. Please share the following information and links with your residents and community members. To access the FCC broadband map:

  1. Visit broadbandmap.fcc.gov/home here, then type in an address and see if the reported coverage is accurate. You can access the site from a computer or a mobile device.
  2. Residents can submit a challenge by clicking “Location Challenge” if the location of their home or business is missing or incorrect, or “Availability Challenge” if the internet service information is incorrect.
  3. Residents should visit the website of any internet service provider that claims to serve their location and use the website’s “Check Availability” or similar tool to determine if the provider can serve their location. If they can’t, a screenshot of their website can be submitted to the FCC as evidence for an availability challenge.

Follow the instructions on how to file an availability challenge using the new map. A how-to video is also available.

Political Sign

POLITICAL SIGNS

Whitehall Township’s ordinance states that political signs must not exceed 32 square feet, with a max height of 8 feet.   They may be placed on private land only, and only with that land owner’s explicit permission.  Signs should be on the property enough that they are not too close to the road, the ordinance states a minimum of 5 feet from any property line.  Campaign signs should never be placed on public land.  Any sign that is improperly placed will be removed and disposed of.  All signs must be removed within 7 days after an election.  The township ordinance does not state when signs can begin going up, however no more than 45 days before an election is recommended.
