Treasurer Department

The Treasurer’s Office is required by law to receive and take charge of all funds belonging to the Township and those which are required by law to be paid into the Township Treasury.

These funds are primarily real estate and personal property taxes, but also include fines, licenses, permits, deposits, bonds, and fees. Included in this responsibility is the accurate accounting of all funds.

The Treasurer is also required to pay out funds to local school districts. In Meridian Township, these include Okemos, Haslett, East Lansing, Williamston, Ingham Intermediate Schools, and Lansing Community College. Other governmental units also receive tax money from Meridian Township, according to the district’s tax rate.

Temporary surplus funds are invested prudently with the emphasis on the safety of the principal as required by state law. The Treasurer's Office is located in the Municipal Building.
