THE OFFICIAL NEWSLETTER FOR NORTH BRANCH VILLAGE (FALL ISSUE– SEPT 2021)
Village Office Hours: A MESSAGE FROM OUR PRESIDENT, KELLY MARTIN:
Mon-Thurs 8am-4pm For many, the topic I would like to address is a very sensitive topic, so I will attempt to
810.688.2620 choose my words carefully. I learned many years ago that it is almost impossible to
change a man/woman’s mind. But people often will make a new decision based on new
Police Department: evidence and information. (I believed that to be a fair statement of how my beliefs moved
Deputy Dewayne Gilley from one point to another).
Deputy Danielle Johnson We have had a recent break from more than a year of restrictions on our normal lives in
response to the Covid-19 pandemic. It came on quickly, took everyone by surprise, and
810.688.3020 or Non-Emergency
caught us as a World Population unprepared. The previous Federal Administration
810.667.0292 “unleashed the Hounds” of Science on a vaccine through a program called “Operation
Warp Speed”. Based in work over decades on other virus types, a few highly regarded
Emergency 911
products were approved for use under the current emergency conditions. To date, just
DPW Department under half of the U.S. population have received at least one dose of the vaccine. Two of
Supervisor– John Ihrke three vaccines are not promising to prevent illness from Covid-19, but do have an impres-
sively high record of preventing symptoms that require hospitalization or lead to death.
Hours 6 am-2:30 pm
The current Federal Administration is attempting to implement the work started by the
810.688.3410 last. Getting enough of our Citizens vaccinated by the drugs developed under “Operation
Priority Waste Warp Speed” into our Citizens to stop the growth and spread of this killer virus.
586.228.1200 Current trends would indicate a new mutation of the Covid-19 Virus will be even more of
a handful! My request to you is, if you have not been vaccinated, please talk to your doc-
Thursday Trash Pick-up
tor. Get the most current information available, and see if a new decision to get vaccinat-
ed is in your, and your friends and families best interest. It’s all I can ask.
M. Kelly Martin
