Welcome to Kalamazoo Charter Township!

Kalamazoo Township wraps around three sides of the City of Kalamazoo, offering equally easy access to all the urban amenities and more rural activities. The Township is made up of four neighborhoods, each with a strong sense of community and history. They contain a broad range of housing stock, thriving locally owned businesses, and commercial and industrial areas available for development. All parts of the Township have access to broadband internet, curbside recycling, and municipal sewer and water. Families in the township have access to several quality school choices, including Kalamazoo Public Schools and the nationally known Kalamazoo Promise Scholarship. Anywhere in the Township residents are short minutes away from highly rated medical facilities and universities as well as parks, golf courses, tennis courts and bike trails. If you’re looking for a place to raise a family, live close to work and play or start a business, please join us in Kalamazoo Township.

Red Med Box

Have you ever wondered what to do with unused or expired medication? Whatever you do, don't flush them down the toilet. Instead, dispose of those items at a Red Med Box.

Red Med Boxes are located at certain area law enforcement buildings, including at the Kalamazoo Township Police Department. Red Med Box is an easy and secure way to dispose of your unused or expired medication.

Survey of Residents

Survey to Help Shape Your Township

A random sampling of registered voters in the Kalamazoo area townships of Comstock, Kalamazoo, Oshtemo and Texas were given an opportunity to grade their township and prioritize services. Survey recipients were asked questions pertaining to services, infrastructure, quality of life and efficiency of local governance. Recipients will also be asked how their tax dollars should be allocated and what areas they would like improved.

Each township will post their survey results on their web sites shortly. Texas Township Superintendent Julie VanderWiere noted that "Surveying residents is the best way to get the pulse of the community's needs".

The four townships are working together with Michigan State University Extension Office and the Lansing based non-profit organization, Cobalt Community Research, to produce, mail and compile the surveys.
