New Health & Community Services Building — Phase 1 design

Brownfield Plan for 50770 Birch Drive, Shelby Township
The county approved a brownfield plan that supports redevelopment of a property in Shelby Township under Michigan's Act 381 incentives. It's meant to help turn a blighted or underused site into productive use, which can grow the local tax base.
Countywide office relocation planning
The county is paying $40,000 to plan a big "office shuffle": moving courts, IT, planning, finance, dispatch and elections between county buildings to make room for a new probate courtroom and expanded dispatch. Draft space-needs reports are expected in late August.
