Comstock Township - Township Board - December 1, 2025 Meeting
The Charter Township of Comstock Board Meeting covers several key issues. The board debates waiving attorney-client privilege on the Clark Hill report, ultimately voting to release it with necessary redactions.
The board also conducts the first reading of an updated battery energy storage system ordinance, which was developed by the Planning Commission and Moratorium Committee to improve upon the previous version.
Additionally, the board sets a policy for deputy participation in meetings, limiting their role to providing reports at the supervisor’s request.
Public comments address concerns about transparency and the role of deputies, with some citizens expressing dissatisfaction with current practices.
The meeting concludes with member comments reflecting on the board’s actions and community relations.
