Documents on Demand: As a way to further promote government transparency, Zeeland Charter Township has established an online portal for all important documents, including agendas, Minutes, Meeting Packets, Public Notices, Legislation, Forms, and more. The link for this can be found at the top of our webpage. Moving forward, all documents will be posted to this portal, and we will also transition all past documents to this portal. One of the major positive attributes of this program is that residents can register and receive email notifications when documents are posted to the portal. If anyone has any questions, feel free to contact Township Manager Josh Eggleston at [email protected] or at 616-772-6701 ext. 115.
