COLDWATER, MI (WTVB) â A decision by the Branch County Board of Commissioners on a updated 911 Service Plan and bylaws for the County is scheduled to take place during their Tuesday afternoon meeting.
Whatever differences there were between the Commissioners and members of the 911 Board seemed to have been worked out.
Branch County Commissioner Leonard Kolcz expressed optimism during Monday’s Bronson City Council meeting.
He said a meeting earlier in the day involving fellow County Commissioner Jon Houtz and a committee made of several 911 Board members went very well.
Bronson City Manager Brandon Mersman also felt good about the meeting.
It forced us to keep our distance, wash our hands and wear masks.
The pandemic led to the cancellation of many yearly events around Branch County including the Branch County Fair, the Bronson Polish Festival, Coldwater’s Strawberryfest and Applefest, the Car Show and Swap Meet and Quincy’s Pints in the Park.
With the Tibbits Opera House forced to shut down, performances of Tibbits Summer Theater were downsized and held outdoors at the Ponds.
The plight of the Capri Drive-In was picked up by national news media outlets as they could not open last spring due to the state’s COVID-19 restrictions. Claiming they had to open in order to survive, the Capri reopened in the middle of May with COVID-19 protocols in place. There was a long line of cars along U.S. 12 that stretched back to the Branch County Memorial Airport on opening night.

COLDWATER, MI (WTVB) – A decision by the Branch County Board of Commissioners on a proposed 911 Service Plan and bylaws for the County has been scheduled for January 12.
The Commissioners for a second time in eight days tabled a vote during a special meeting on Wednesday after Commissioner Jon Houtz said meetings this week with a stakeholders committee were not held.
