Austin Township wants to let our residents know that there is a scam letter going around about properties that are going into tax foreclosure on March 31. They are implying that it is your property and asking you to call them so they can help you get things caught up. Do not respond to the correspondence. Call your local treasurer or the county treasurer. Austin-231-823-9704 x3
