Did you know
the County Clerk maintains two offices?
The
main office is located at the County Courthouse in
downtown Mason and our branch office is located in
Lansing at the Veterans Memorial Courthouse 313 W.
Kalamazoo, on the corner of Kalamazoo and Walnut. Our
hours are from 8:00 a.m to 5:00 p.m Monday through
Friday and for your convenience we remain open through
the lunch hour at both locations. At our Mason location,
there is free on street parking around the building. In
Lansing there is free parking across from the Courthouse
and metered parking on the street. At either location
our staff will be happy to assist you with vital
records, filing assumed names, co-partnerships, and
issuing and filing marriage licenses. In addition,
we process concealed weapons applications, notary bonds,
passports, and passport photos. Currently, passport
processing time is approximately 4-6 weeks and Concealed
Weapons applications are taking about 8-10 weeks for
approval. Our office is dedicated to offering prompt and
efficient service to get you in and out of the door
quickly and courteously. Still have questions?
Feel free to give us a call at (517) 676-7201.
My staff
and I are dedicated to providing quality services to the
citizens of Ingham County. If I may be of
assistance to you, please feel free to contact me.

WHAT WE DO...
The County
Clerk is elected for a four-year term and is responsible
for keeping records of births, deaths, assumed names,
co-partnerships, and issuing and filing marriage
licenses. In addition, the Clerk processes gun
permits, notary bonds, and passports. The Clerk
also serves as the Chairperson of the Elections
Scheduling Committee, Clerk of the Board of
Commissioners, the Board of Canvassers, the Gun Board,
and is the Clerk of the Circuit Court. The Clerk
is also a member of the Plat Board and Election
Commission.
One of the more prominent
responsibilities is the chief Election Official in the
County. As such, the County Clerk administers all
election functions required by law. Part of those
duties include the supervision of all national, state,
and local elections and includes the training of all
election workers in the County for those communities
with a population of under ten thousand. The Clerk
is also responsible for the Administration of the
Michigan Campaign Finance Reporting Act for those
candidates that file for office at the local
level.
