Currently Kincheloe is experiencing extreme cold temperatures with very little insulating snow blanket, increasing the likelihood of a freeze in the water and sewage systems. As such, the Kinross Township Water and Sewer Department strongly recommends that all residents run a single pencil-width stream of cold water in their home or business until further notice. Water bills will be estimated based on the prior month's usage while the "let run" order is in effect, and will not be charged extra for allowing their water to run. Failure to run your water as recommended could result in your being responsible for any lines damaged as a consequence of your inaction.
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the Water and Sewer Department at (906) 495-5134 or (906) 495-5738.

Kinross Charter Township and Kinross EMS would like to give a big “Thank You” to Sault Sainte Marie Tribe of Chippewa Indians for their generous donation of $20,313.85.

Northern EMS Authority
Kinross Charter Township has partnered with the Townships of Bruce, Chippewa, Detour, Hulbert, Marquette, Pickford, Raber, Rudyard, and Whitefish to form the “Northern EMS Authority”. The Articles of Incorporation have been posted in the Soo Evening News and the St. Ignace News. A governing body has been formed and officers of the board have been appointed. Bylaws and legalities are being reviewed and a feasibility study is being conducted. This has been a topic of discussion among EMS agencies throughout our county for quite some time. It will be on your regular board meeting agenda items so the public may ask questions and gain knowledge regarding your EMS department. We will also be holding some special town hall meetings on the following dates:
– Kinross Charter Township Hall
– Kinross Charter Township Hall
These town hall meetings will be informational sessions conducted for the public to provide you with some information about the history and future of EMS in your community. The public is also welcome to attend the next meeting of the Northern EMS Authority (NEMSA) which will be held on Wednesday January 10, 2024 at 6pm at the Kinross Charter Township Hall. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to your EMS Chief, Renee Gray at 906-495-6062. We appreciate your continued support.
