Michigan recently passed new recycling laws that require all 83 counties to update their Materials Management Plans (MMP). One of the key goals is to increase the state’s recycling rate from 25% to 30% by 2029.

Allegan County is developing a regional plan to improve how materials are managed, including waste disposal, recycling, and composting. Your feedback will help the County understand community needs, identify opportunities, and guide future investments and services.

Residents are invited to take a short survey:

On Tuesday, our Transportation Director attended the Community Transportation Association of America conference in Omaha, Nebraska, where she joined a sustainable fleet panel. Led by the Propane Education & Research Council, the panel explored the benefits of utilizing propane Autogas powered vehicles in p***c transit fleets. Since introducing the propane vehicles to the fleet in 2024, Allegan County Transportation has seen a decrease to the operating cost per mile, saving upwards of $10,000 every month in refueling costs.

This past Saturday was a great day for the annual Tulip Time Fly-In, hosted by the West Michigan Regional Airport ! Over 24 planes flew into the regional airport for this event, and ACT collaborated with Interurban Transit Authority throughout the day providing transportation to pilots and members of the public who wanted to get downtown from the airport. Tulip Time is happening all week for those who want to visit City Of Holland, Michigan for this famous tradition.
