Since 1854 — News from Montcalm County and Ionia County, Michigan
Village of Pierson officials are hoping federal and state grants will help mitigate the cost of a planned $2.4 million sewer project.
The tiny village on the far northwest side of Montcalm County’s Panhandle is home to less than 200 people, and accordingly the Village Council is mostly a family affair.
The village of Pierson and the township of Pierson have historically had a bit of a touchy relationship.
One example — since the tiny village doesn’t have an online presence, the township clerk began posting village contact information and Village Council meeting minutes on the township’s website as a free service. The Village Council voted to ask the township to stop.
