Voters who live in the Vanderbilt School District should head to Corwith Township Hall, 8170 Mill Street, Vanderbilt, MI 49795 to cast your vote.

- Notice to Voters: The State of Michigan is discontinuing the process of absentee ballot applications. The new process is a permanent absentee ballot. What this means for the absentee voter is that your Clerk will no longer be sending you an application for each election. You have the option to receive a mail in ballot for every election for which you are eligible by joining the permanent ballot list. If you are interested in joining the permanent ballot list, please contact your Clerk.
- Public Notices: Effective February 2025, all public noticed (those published in newspapers) will be posted in the Charlevoix News at a minimum. This is to avoid any resident looking at multiple publications.
Fire Department News:
- Fire Department Update: in 2024 Hudson Township Fire and Rescue had 87 medical calls (including primary and mutual aid to outlying areas). In addition to our ambulance transport personnel, there were 2.5 Hudson Township responders on every call. Thank your fire department personnel for that accomplishment.
