Tecumseh Township

The process for road maintenance:

1. Newly paved road.
2. Crack & seal. (cracks only sealed with tar & stone)
3. Seal coat - Tar & stone on complete road. This process could be done twice depending on the condition of the road.
4. Repave or cap.
5. Crack & seal second time.
6. Seal coat second time.
7. Remove existing (mill out) and repave.

The above process allows our roads to be maintained in a safe condition for automobiles at the lowest cost to our residents. We have spent $86,000 per year on average for the five years approximately 2010-2015. To avoid any seal coating with tar & stone and yet maintain our roads in a safe manner, we would need to increase our operating taxes by at least 2 mills per year. We as a board feel our current method is the most effective. But, we are interested in your thoughts & comments.

For any comments regarding road situations within the Township, please contact Township Supervisor or Township Road Contact on the board page.
