The Hartland Township Board met virtually Tuesday night and adopted a plan that deals with how to handle potential emergency situations.
The Emergency Support Operations Plan for Hartland basically lays out the game plan for a localized emergency. It was originally completed in 2017 but was set to expire so required revisions were made and the plan is now good for another four years. The plan could be triggered by potential hazmat situations, expressway incidents or crashes, straight line winds or tornados. It identifies chain of command, point persons, different responsibilities and steps that need to be taken. The plan focuses on the safety of residents through information, planning, and preparation for all emergency events and potential hazards. Itâs described as an adaptable document that can be applied to all hazards.

A group of women from Livingston County who dress as nuns and gained notoriety as supporters of former President Donald Trump, are not nuns at all, at least not those recognized by the Roman Catholic Church.
An article Wednesday in the National Catholic Reporter (NCR) says the women, who go by the name of, The Dominican Sisters of the Immaculate Heart of Mary are based in Hartland Township, but according to a spokesman for the Diocese of Lansing, do not have canonical standing within the Church.
