Civil Township
A civil township is a widely used unit of local government in the United States that is subordinate to a county, most often in the northern and midwestern parts of the country. The term town is used in New England, New York, and Wisconsin to refer to the equivalent of the civil township in these states; Minnesota uses "town" officially but often uses it and "township" interchangeably.

Township officers frequently include justice of ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
