I am a very proud resident and elected official for the Charter Township of Royal Oak.  I was appointed the clerk May 2003 and Thanks to the best citizen in the world, I have since then been elected for the clerk position.  I have enjoyed and continue to enjoy working with an elected board that is proactive and dedicated.   I pride myself on the quality, effectiveness and efficient services provided by the clerks office.  Since I am part-time, I am very dependent on the staff in the clerks office who are very friendly, extremely competent, reliable, creative, knowledgeable and efficient.
