Genoa Townshipâs longtime clerk, who is facing arraignment next month on an election violation charge, has been ordered by state officials to refrain from conducting any business related to elections, including processing ballots and voter registration.
The prohibitions came in a letter dated March 29th from Jonathan Brater, the Director of Elections for the Michigan Department of State, to Genoa Township Clerk Polly Skolarus. She was charged in March with a single, misdemeanor charge of Election Law - Failure to Perform Duty after a Michigan State Police investigation determined that she had used unapproved canvas bags to store excess absentee ballots used in the November 2020 election.

A Detroit man accused of armed robbery and fleeing from police in late 2019 has been sentenced.
29-year-old Bryan James Busher was charged following the Christmas Eve 2019 incident at the Genoa Township Walmart. Authorities say Busher and another man had pushed out a shopping cart full of items without paying, and when confronted by an employee, Busher implied he had a gun. The pair then loaded the items into a van and drove away. A pursuit ensued until the van crashed at the Pleasant Valley Road entrance ramp on eastbound I-96, where Busher and the other suspect fled on foot into a nearby wooded area. Busher was arrested after being located by a drone.

With a second consecutive forced adjournment for being over allowed capacity, Genoa Townshipâs Supervisor is considering options that will allow officials to conduct business.
Earlier this month, residents opposed to a proposed project by Catholic Healthcare International showed up in numbers large enough to force the Board of Trustees to adjourn due to MDHHS capacity orders. In an effort to aid business getting done in situations like this going forward, the Board put on its agenda for yesterdayâs meeting discussion about declaring a local state of emergency to allow for online meetings. Even though the CHI matter was not on that agenda, too many residents again showed up, forcing the Board to adjourn its second consecutive meeting. Supervisor Bill Rogers said they can fit 21 people in their Board Room, but 38 came to attend.
