Tyrone Township

What Tyrone Township does

Tyrone Township is a statutory general law township and local government entity serving approximately 12,002 residents (2020 Census) in the northeastern corner of Livingston County, Michigan. Settled in 1834, it administers core municipal services including property tax assessment and collection, elections, planning and zoning, cemeteries, ordinance enforcement, road maintenance coordination, sewer services, and recreational facility rentals. The township does not operate its own police or fire departments; instead, public safety is delivered through contracted partnerships with the Livingston County Sheriff (8 hours/day, 7 days/week deputy coverage) and three fire authorities (City of Fenton Fire Department, Fenton Township Fire Department, and Hartland Fire Authority), funded in part by a five-year Police and Fire Special Assessment adopted in 2023.

The township's technology platform is built around its official website (tyronetownship.us) as the primary resident-facing interface, integrating BS&A Online for tax and assessing functions and a GIS Parcel Viewer provided by Livingston County Geographic Information Systems. Services are delivered through both the township hall at 8420 Runyan Lake Road, Fenton, Michigan (in-person, Monday–Thursday 9:00 a.m.–5:00 p.m.) and digital self-service channels including online tax payments, permits and applications, voter registration, FOIA requests, and a Mailchimp-powered email newsletter reaching 700+ subscribers. The organization operates with 11–50 employees across 12 administrative departments led by elected officials including Supervisor Greg Carnes and Clerk Pam Moughler.

Revenue is generated through three primary streams: general property taxes on the township tax base, the dedicated Police and Fire Special Assessment tiered by parcel type ($100–$275+ per parcel annually), and one-time fees for dog licenses, sewer permits, passports, hall rental, and land use permits. The township also receives state and federal aid. As a government entity, it is publicly governed, does not have shareholders or funding rounds, and publishes its 2026–2027 fiscal year budget following a public hearing process managed by the elected Township Board.
